MONROE - No injuries were reported for a two-vehicle accident involving a Monroe Police Department squad car at about 3:15 a.m. Saturday in the 2500 block of 5th Street in the City of Monroe. Deputies dispatched to the scene report Monroe Police Officer Mike Mortimer, 44, had located a Ford F150 pick-up parked in the road at the location. The driver of the pick-up, Adam L. Berndt, 43, rural Monroe, was passed out behind the steering wheel and had kept the truck in reverse. Berndt woke up and accelerated, causing his vehicle to back into the front of Mortimer's squad. Berndt was wearing his seatbelt. Mortimer did not have his seatbelt attached, because he had just entered his squad to move it to avoid a collision. The squad vehicle received moderate, front-end damage. Berndt's truck had very minor scratches to the rear bumper. Both vehicles were driven from the scene. Berndt was arrested by Monroe Police Department for first offense driving while under the influence of alcohol. He was also cited for unsafe backing and open intoxicants in the vehicle.
