Cop Rescues Suspect After Fiery Crash

NACOGDOCHES, TX (KTRE) - After risking his own life to rescue a wanted man from a fiery crash, Nacogdoches Police officer John Allen is being nominated for a state award. According to the Nacogdoches Police Department's Facebook page, Allen's heroic act will be nominated for the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education (TCLEOSE) Life Saving Award. Allen was among the officers pursuing a shoplifting suspect who took off from a grocery store on May 31 and headed to a neighborhood in south Nacogdoches. When Allen reached the bottom of a hill at East Seale Street and Press Road, he drove up on the suspect's wrecked Chevrolet HHR. A dash cam video recording from Allen's squad car shows the mangled red vehicle smoking, cradled by twisted tree limbs and debris from the high-speed crash.
