Thanks everybody..... I have not heard any update on his condition but I was wondering if the damage to the passenger side of the windshield MAY have been caused by his head contacting the same....I'm not sure if he was restrained or not.... Either way, he had a rough ride....

It's GREAT to have you back! I love seeing the dedicated men and women of Dutchess County at work, and as they say, a photo says a million words. With your understanding of the scene and photography, your photos really come out amazing, and really reflect the incident.
