TRAFFIC STOP GOES BAD: Ulster County Sheriff Vehicles Collide Into Each Other


The State Police in Ellenville are investigating a crash involving two Ulster County Sherrif’s vehicles. The collision occurred on June 11, 2019 at approximately 11 a.m. on Lucas Avenue in the town of Marbletown.

A preliminary investigation revealed that an unmarked Ulster County Sheriff vehicle, operated by Deputy Sheriff Robert Shamro, stopped a vehicle for a vehicle and traffic law violation. During the stop, Deputy Sheriff Shamro had the driver step out of his vehicle for further interview. A marked Ulster County Sheriff vehicle, operated by Corrections Officer James Wenzel failed to observe the two vehicles, striking the unmarked sheriff’s vehicle in the rear pushing it into Deputy Sheriff Shamro and the operator of the other vehicle.

All three were transported to Mid-Hudson Regional Hospital with non life threatening injuries.

The investigation is ongoing.
