Crash with trooper kills 1.

Date: 09/15/2011
Time: Around 4:00 P.M.
Location: Near Park City, Kentucky
Vehicle(s) Involved: Ford Mustang, Ford Crown Victoria

By DEBORAH HIGHLAND and JENNA MINK, The Daily News

"A Kentucky State Police trooper was involved Thursday in a two-car, head-on collision near Park City that killed the driver of the other car.

KSP Trooper (Name), the public affairs officer for state police Post 3 in Bowling Green, was driving southbound in a caravan with other troopers just before 4 p.m. Thursday on U.S. 31-W north of Park City when his state police cruiser, a Ford Crown Victoria, crossed the center line and struck a 2003 Ford Mustang driven by (Name) 33, of Riverside, N.J., according to Lt. David Jude of KSP media relations in Frankfort.

Ceylan was flown from the scene to Hardin Memorial Hospital in Elizabethtown, where she was pronounced dead. Her passenger, Samuel H. Parker, 54, of Willingboro, N.J., was treated at the scene. Both Ceylan and Parker have been residing in Greensburg, according to the KSP.

Biven was taken to T.J. Samson Community Hospital in Glasgow, where he was treated for non-life-threatening injuries. He was released Thursday night and has minor facial injuries, Jude said.

Biven was on duty when the collision occurred and was traveling with a caravan of troopers from a firing range, Jude said.

Accident reconstructionists with the KSP are investigating the crash and are trying to determine exactly what happened. They are reviewing a crash data recorder installed in the cruiser.

“It’s a big puzzle, if you will,” Jude said.

Speed does not appear to be a factor, Jude said. Also, alcohol and drugs are not suspected to be factors, according to the news release.

It is too early to determine exactly what caused Biven to cross the center line, Jude said.

“We do know that Trooper Biven did cross the center line, and the collision occurred from there,” he said. “As far as assigning what has happened or what caused that just yet, it’s way too early to do that.”

There is no policy mandating administrative leave if a trooper is involved in an accident. Any leave will be based on his medical needs, Jude said.

Also responding to the scene were the Park City Fire Department and the Barren County Sheriff’s Office."
