QUINCY, Mass. — A veteran Quincy police officer is recovering from head and shoulder injuries after he was hit by a car on the Fore River Bridge Friday morning.
Police say Detective Thomas Pepdjonovic, a 14-year veteran of the department, is expected to make a full recovery.
Police had temporarily shut down I-93 north to escort the ambulance to Boston Medical Center.
Pepdjonovic was working a special construction detail on the Fore River Bridge when a female driver slammed into him.
"The woman that was involved in the accident was very distraught, she stayed on scene and she's been cooperative," said Chief Paul Keenan.
The Fore River Bridge was closed for accident reconstruction, but has since reopened.
No criminal charges have been filed as of yet.
