Event : Bystander killed by speeding police vehicle

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On 12/09/2024, a fatal vehicle crash occurred in Rome, Georgia, involving a responding police officer and 66-year-old Tammie Pickelsimer. The crash happened at the intersection of Veterans Memorial Highway and Cedartown Highway as officers raced to a reported bomb threat at the residence of U.S. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.

The Rome Police Department received an email threatening that a pipe bomb had been placed in Rep. Greene’s mailbox. The email included specific details about the alleged device, describing it as "a 1×8 inch threaded galvanized pipe, end caps, a kitchen timer, some wires, metal clips and homemade black powder." The sender expressed satisfaction at the prospect of harm coming to law enforcement or Rep. Greene, concluding with the phrase "VIVA VIVA PALESTINA." which according to police was "traced to a "Russian IP address", referenced Palestine and led to a high-priority response, including a bomb squad dispatched to Greene’s residence. IP addresses are easy to change and the email appears to have been a hoax.
.
During the response, an officer driving his personal vehicle crashed into Ms. Pickelsimer's car. Emergency responders pronounced Ms. Pickelsimer dead at the scene. The officer sustained injuries and was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment.
.
The bomb squad later confirmed that there was no active threat at Rep. Greene’s residence. This incident marks one of several threats and swatting calls targeting Rep. Greene, who reported at least nine such incidents.
.
The Georgia State Patrol is leading the investigation into the crash, and federal agencies, including the FBI, are investigating the origins of the bomb threat email.
