Dallas motorcycle officer killed in Clinton motorcade wreck

BY NATHANIEL JONES

NBC5

A veteran Dallas police officer was killed this morning when his motorcycle crashed while he was escorting presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to a campaign rally in south Dallas.

Clinton later cut short her appearance in Fort Worth so that she could return to Dallas to be with the officer's family.

She told a crowd of several hundred people that had gathered outside the Tarrant County courthouse in Fort Worth for her appearance that the rally would be inappropriate and canceled the event.

The motorcycle officer, Victor Lozada, 49, was killed at about 9 a.m. on the Houston Street Viaduct as he was part of Clinton's motorcade.

Clinton learned of the accident after her appearance in Dallas.

They're dying around her

Now, now, now, let's not go there. We have had two of these accidents in the Bush motorcades

From COUNTRecount on another thread:

NewsMax.com Monday Oct. 15, 2001; 6:04 p.m. EDT

Sen. Hillary Clinton was a passenger inside the car that injured a police officer at New York’s Westchester County Airport on Sunday as it attempted to drive past a mandatory security check point, NewsMax.com has learned.

In a story that was broadcast only in Westchester County Monday night, Cablevision News12 reported that a county police officer injured his arm pounding on the window of Clinton’s limousine while trying to get it to stop. Clinton’s motorcade was heading for an airport hangar where a private jet waited to take her to an undisclosed location.

News12 reported Sunday night that “a vehicle in Senator Clinton’s security team tried to bypass a mandatory check point” - but it was unclear whether Mrs. Clinton was inside that car or a different vehicle.

(emphasis is mine)

So this witch's arrogance got this policeman killed? Heaven help anyone who has to work closely with the Clintons!

May he rest in peace and may his family take comfort in this tragic event with the realization that he faithfully served the public and paid the ultimate price.

That doesn’t mean she or her attitudes was in any way responsible. We need to be careful about this. People DO die around the Clintons, but not everyone who dies is because of them. We need to make this distinction now so that if she does get into the WH and we see the same kind of pattern we saw with Bill, then we might have the credibility to reveal it.

The one you posted, the officer didn’t get killed. He hurt his arm.

Wow, this is the first instance I recall where the number one post by the poster has been removed by the Moderator, while the actual post still remains. Interesting FR trivia, if true.

No. It is a current event, although the NewsMax article posted was from 2001.
