WASHINGTON - A D.C. Police SUV was involved in a wreck at the filming
of "Transformers 3" in Washington D.C. While the movie was filming a car chase scene on 3rd Street and
Maryland Ave in southwest D.C., the police SUV collides with a yellow
Chevy Camaro, which in the movie series is known as the character
Bumblebee. The police SUV was not supposed to be there and the wreck itself was
not scripted. The police officer driving the SUV is a 25-year veteran senior
explosive ordnance technician. He was taken to a local hospital and
sustained minor injuries. Law enforcement sources tell FOX 5 that he was driving to a call for a
suspicious package incident nearby and was using a different radio
channel than the police officers who were securing the perimeter for
the movie. To view a video of the incident, including the crash, visit http://bit.ly/c4QRmN
