RACINE, WISCONSIN – Racine Police report that Tarance L. Bryant, 33, of Racine, Wi, fled the scene of a two-vehicle wreck which occurred early on Dec. 13, 2014. The wreck took place at 13th St. and South Memorial Drive in the city of Racine.

On Tuesday, December 9, 2014, at approximately 10:50 p.m., the Elmwood Park Police Department received a report of a motor vehicle collision with a pedestrian who had been struck in the area of the intersection of Route 46 West and Bank Street in Elmwood Park. Officers responding to the scene determined that Marie BRIAMONTE, who was operating a 2003 Toyota Camry, had struck MANINDER SINGH, a 48 year old North Plainfield, New Jersey man, who had crossed the highway near the intersection. As a result of injuries suffered during the collision, Mr. SINGH was transported to St. Joseph’s Medical Center where he was pronounced dead. Officers at the scene made observations that led them to believe that Ms. BRIAMONTE was driving while intoxicated.

Higgins’ plan now is to drive it around to raise awareness of the toll drunk driving exacts.

“Even if they don’t stop, they’re going to read the sign, and they’ll go home and they might look this up on the internet,” said Higgins.

The first time Brian Simpkins was arrested on a charge of drunken driving — after ramming his Chevy pickup into a tree in Canton — he was just 19.

Simpkins is one of at least 30 Massachusetts law enforcement officials who have been charged with drunken driving while off-duty since the start of 2012, a Globe review has found. The crashes collectively killed three people and injured more than a half-dozen others.

Though some officers resigned or were placed on unpaid leave after the charges, a majority kept their jobs, sometimes after a short suspension.
