From a previous story: LAPD Motorcyclist In “Serious” Condition After Collision With Truck On I-5

Officer Dan Boka, a 20-year veteran of the LAPD, is reportedly in “serious” condition after sustaining injuries from a crash on his police motorcycle, said Patrick Moody, spokesman for Henry Mayo.

“Upon arrival at the scene, Officer Boka, a 20 year veteran of the LAPD, and a motorcycle officer of 10 years, was, in fact, pinned beneath the front of a Ford Explorer,” said the CHP incident report.

The collision on I-5 occurred at 5:15 a.m. — authorities shut down all lanes on the Southbound direction of the freeway to investigate the scene until 8:45 a.m., according to CHP logs.

The incident is not being treated as a criminal investigation based on the preliminary investigation. The driver who reportedly struck the officer with his truck has not been arrested.

CHP officers suspect the motorcycle might have crashed after colliding with debris on the road before the motorcycle officer was struck. All the information is preliminary at this time, according to investigators.

Officer Boka is currently recovering as of Wednesday afternoon, more information on his condition will be released as it is available.

This incident is still under investigation, anyone with information regarding this collision is encouraged to contact Officer Cookston at the Newhall Area CHP Office at (661) 294-5540.
