The driver hit two cars and several people.

Law enforcement officers have extremely dangerous jobs, we’ve always known that. But often the risk lies in places and situations we don’t consider. Like when an officer is roadside, investigating a crash or disabled vehicle. Drunk drivers are everywhere, and they are routinely and inexplicably drawn to flashing lights on emergency vehicles. More and more, however, distracted drivers are at the root of deadly crashes. That’s what happened in Polk County on Tuesday night. A Lake Wales police officer was helping with some citizens who were stranded on the side of the road when a car approached at full speed, crashed into the cruiser and then -boned another car. Neither the officer nor the bystanders were killed, but there were injuries. As the terrifying bodycam video shows, Lake Wales Officer Jacob Raines was rendering aid to some people who’s car was stuck in a ditch. Officer Raines had placed his police vehicle in the right-hand lane of the road with its lights flashing to warn oncoming traffic of the danger. When Raines noticed that an approaching car was not slowing or moving into the other lane, he attempted to signal the driver to change lanes with his flashlight. It did not work. The car crashed into the rear of the cruiser and then veered off of the road and toward the disabled car, hitting it broadside. Several people were hit by the car, with one man being knocked to the ground and another boy being hit in the hand. The driver, who police identified as Fort Myers resident Jose Antonio Cuevas was allegedly texting while driving. The police vehicle was totaled in the crash. Cuevas was cited with careless driving and texting while driving. Investigators say if the officer had been standing behind his cruiser, this story would have been far more tragic. Source: WFLA.com

Sean Roberts was conceived in the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky by two passionate, panel aligning, third shifters who had grown bored with the same ole same ole. Upon birth, he was placed in the trunk of a new Stingray and sent off to find his destiny. That destiny included several stints on radio stations across the United States. Some played punk country gospel, while others focused on Croatian death metal played backwards. After many years and many adventures, Sean wound up on The Shark, where he does shots of tequila while playing the most badass tunes ever created by humankind. He remains humble, however, never forgetting about the lean years...the street corners and dark alleys where he played songs on his car stereo for food and sex. He's on top and he's never gonna stop LIVING THE DREAM!
