ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (Aug. 27) - A police officer in President Bush 's
motorcade crashed his motorcycle and died Monday, less than a year
after a crash in Hawaii killed another motorcycle officer
accompanying the president.
The motorcycle of deceased officer Germaine Casey is seen on the
curb, right, after crashing Monday in Albuquerque, N.M. President
Bush had been headed to the airport after attending a fundraiser
for Sen. Pete Domenici, R-N.M., when the crash happened.
Rio Rancho Officer Germaine Casey, 40, crashed at the Albuquerque
airport at a point where a road enters an underground parking
garage, said Trish Hoffman, a spokeswoman for the Albuquerque
Police Department. He was pronounced dead at an Albuquerque hospital.
Bush had been headed to the airport after attending a fundraiser
for Sen. Pete Domenici, R-N.M.
"Any time there is a presidential motorcade, the officers, that's
part of their job, they drive at a high rate of speed," said
Hoffman, whose department is investigating the crash.
Rio Rancho police department spokesman Officer John Francis said
Casey's motorcycle hit a curb and then a tree, but investigators
were reconstructing the accident to determine exactly what happened.
Photographers and reporters in the presidential motorcade said the
officer's motorcycle appeared to be nearly destroyed, and the
officer was on the ground, being helped by an emergency medical
technician.
White House spokesman Scott Stanzel said the president saw the
wreck after it had occurred, and a member of the White House
medical staff went to assist.
Bush called Casey's wife, Lisa, from his limousine on the way to
the airport in Seattle to offer condolences, Stanzel said.
The president issued a statement saying he was saddened by Casey's
death and extraordinarily grateful for his protection.
"It is a high calling to choose to serve and protect your fellow
citizens, and I will always be indebted to Officer Casey's
service," the president said, adding that the officer's wife and
two teenage children were in his thoughts and prayers.
The officer had been with the Rio Rancho Police Department since
2005 and worked with campus police at the University of New Mexico
before that, Hoffman said.
Francis said Casey had received special training in riding in
motorcades and had previously escorted Bush and Vice President Dick
Cheney on separate occasions.
A Honolulu police officer, Steve Favela, died in November when he
and two other motorcycle officers crashed while part of a
presidential motorcade traveling across Hickam Air Force Base.
