"I would think, if anyone, a cop should probably pull over and make sure everyone is okay in a situation that he caused," Cloud said."I think it’s hard to believe that no one knew that I was a part of the accident. I’m pretty sure the truck in the middle had to have known he bumped into the car in front of him."
"It's hard to say. I mean, you never know," said Spanish Fork PD Lt. Cory Slaymaker."If it’s hit from behind, bumps into the car in front of them? You would presume they would know that, but I’ve seen crazier things happen." "If I left the scene? They would track me down," Cloud said."I think he was definitely doing something he shouldn't have been doing. Whether he was on his phone, or drinking, or who knows what? I don't think you just randomly run into the back of someone unless you're not paying attention."
Investigators described it as"a hold recognized by the officers as an escort hold which is used to gain compliance of suspects."
