A 66-year-old volunteer Fire Policeman was hit this morning while directing traffic in Hampden Township. William H. Taylor was keeping traffic off Good Hope Road, where flooding from the Conodoguinet River was blocking parts of the road. Around 0800 hours, a white pick-up truck driven by John L. Kurtz, 66,, hit FPO Taylor as it was making a turn. It isn’t clear if Kurtz was turning onto the blocked road. Police said he was alert after the crash but the extent of his injuries aren’t known. It was stormy and raining — at times very hard — this morning.
