A Beckley police officer was involved in a two-vehicle accident Saturday night.

Beckley Police Chief Tim Deems said the officer was headed northbound on Robert C. Byrd Drive in response to an apparent fight call when the accident occurred near Arby’s.

Both the officer, whose name is not being released at this time, and the driver of the other vehicle, who was also not being identified, were transported to unknown hospitals. Deems was uncertain of the condition of either driver.

The wreck investigation is being handled by the State Police.
