San Francisco Police Officer, Philip Welsh, struck Robert Kellogg, a bicyclist, approximately three years ago today. Officer Welsh was on duty and dressed in uniform when he smashed into Kellogg at the intersection of Columbus Avenue and Stockton and Green Streets. Rather than assisting the injured cyclist, Officer Welsh fled without providing Kellogg with his full name or address, and failed to file an accident report. Soon justice will be served; the San Francisco Police Commission will likely compensate Kellogg $150,000 for this bicycle accident.
