PSA Recorded By First Trooper Injured In 2008
The radio PSA was recorded this summer by Trooper Kris S. Chapman who was severely injured by a drunk driver Feb. 1, 2008. After stopping a vehicle off the southbound lanes of I-81 in Smyth County, Trooper Chapman was sitting in his patrol car finishing up the traffic stop when a pick-up truck crashed into his marked cruiser. Seven months later, the 30-year-old trooper is still recuperating from his injuries. He was the first of eight troopers struck statewide this year while working on the side of an interstate.
