Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Officer Robert Turner was one of the officers escorting President Donald Trump through the city on Wednesday when he crashed his motorcycle on I-70.
With the officer down on the interstate with a broken ankle, it appears that a photographer decided to take pictures of the injured officer, rather than help him. A photo shows the officer lying on the pavement alone and in pain.
Daily Mail lists the photo as being taken by an AFP photographer.
Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department posted to social media on Thursday that President Trump delayed taking off until he spoke to Officer Turner and thanked him for his service.
IMPD posted a video of the wounded officer speaking with the president with the following information:
#BREAKING – Video of injured Officer Turner speaking with President Donald J. Trump. POTUS delayed taking off from #Indy until he was assured Officer Turner was ok and he also called and spoke with the Officer. #ThankYou
On behalf of the IMPD, we would like to take an opportunity to thank President Donald J. Trump for his thoughtful act in delaying his departure in Air Force One until he was assured that the officer injured in the motorcade accident was ok.
Calls were made by his staff to Chief Bryan Roach checking on Cycle Officer Turner. President Trump even took the time to speak with Officer Turner after the accident, to check on him. Thank you for your compassion, concern, and leadership Mr. President!

Trump has class.
The reporter lacks the c and the l.
But, then again, he IS MSM.
You know, the folks with toilet paper for degrees.
Wonder what the MSM headline will be, “Racist Trump causes black Cop’s injuries. Makes sure medical care is delayed for photo op”
You remember correctly.
Yep. What do you think Obozo would have done?
Zero would not have gone to Indianapolis, unless there was a fund raiser.
The fifth-column leftist MSM then publish used TP.
.
>> “Yep. What do you think Obozo would have done?” <<
Accuse the officer of laying down on the job.

The officer is black...and Trump being the White Supremacist he is...well, if they do report it, they'll insist that Trump ordered the driver of the Beast to run over him.
I'm sure Gayle King and Rosie's sister, Nora, will be all over this.
He's lucky.
Poor man. I hope that he’s all right.
Obama would have said the cop “acted stupidly”
When did that happen? I don’t remember that.
I think it was during her campaign in 2008.
Thank you Mr President. Get that french reporter out of the country.
President Trump loves those who serve this country, LEO, military, fire all first responders. That love is evident all the time
My brother has had escort duty for Trump twice. Each time the President came over and said hello and did handshaking.
He also escorted Michelle O once. She didn’t even acknowledge them.
I hope EMS came quickly, and with a wheelchair.
Thank you President Trump, for your thoughtful response.
