Missouri Police Officer and Mother of Six Dies in Fiery Crash

 

 

A Missouri police officer and mother of six, Phylicia Carson, tragically lost her life after crashing her patrol vehicle into a tree during a high-speed chase.

The incident occurred on Saturday when Osage Beach officer Carson, 33, joined the pursuit of a suspect who had fled from another officer attempting to stop him for speeding on U.S. Highway 54. According to the Camden County Sheriff’s Office, the suspect, 23-year-old Christopher Aaron Bishop Wehmeyer, now faces felony charges for resisting arrest and creating a substantial risk of death.

During the chase, Carson lost control of her vehicle, veered off the road, and collided with a tree. Her patrol car then caught fire, and despite efforts, she succumbed to her injuries.

As of now, it remains unclear whether Wehmeyer has legal representation. A staff member at the Camden County Jail was unable to confirm if the suspect had secured an attorney.

In a statement released online, Missouri Governor Mike Parson honored Carson’s memory, stating that she “will not be forgotten.”
