A driver in Covina, California was arrested this weekend when he crashed head-on with a hearse carrying a body to a funeral service.
The incident happened at about 8:30 a.m. when an officer pulled up behind the car that was stopped at a red light. When the light turned green, the car failed to go so the officer went to investigate. He noticed that the driver seemed unconscious so he tapped on the window. When he did, the driver got freaked out and pushed the accelerator. That propelled him through the intersection and into oncoming traffic, which included a Cadillac hearse carrying a body in the back.
Spencer Brawner, 18, was the driver in the car. He was arrested, cited and released all in the same day, according to Covina police Sgt. Ray Marquez. Luckily, nobody was hurt in the accident. The hearse was not part of a funeral procession at the time. It was just transporting a body to a funeral home for a service. Another hearse was sent to the scene to carry the body the rest of the way. That hearse made it to the funeral home without incident.
