A Maplewood police officer received a head injury and an Irvington woman was also injured following a two-car weekend accident on Springfield Avenue, according to Capt. John Perna.
The officer, Justin Moen, was making a left turn into the Police and Courts Building shortly before 11 p.m. Saturday when his car struck another vehicle headed in the opposite direction, said Perna.
Both Moen and the woman were able to get out of their cars unassisted.
Moen was taken to University Hospital with a head injury. He received stitches in the back of his head and was released.
The other driver, a 56-year old woman police did not identify, complained of pain and was also taken to University Hospital. She was released the next morning.
The cause of the accident is being investigated. Moen has returned to full duty.
