Sgt. William Muse, the officer whose vehicle collided with Penn State U. student Kevin Ignatuk early Sunday morning, told police he had been driving about five to 10 mph over the speed limit at the time of the collision.

Muse’s marked police SUV collided with Ignatuk, 21, at about 1:42 a.m. Sunday on the 400 block of East Beaver Avenue while Muse was on routine patrol, according to a State College Police Department vehicle accident report.

Muse told police that moments before the collision, another man was crossing the street and he watched him cross, narrowly missing the front of his police SUV.

Then Ignatuk, of Thornton, Pa., “jumped in the path of his vehicle,” according to the accident report released today.

Ignatuk remains in critical condition at the Geisinger Medical Center in Danville, Pa., hospital officials said.

Muse told police he applied his brakes — though he couldn’t remember if he slammed on them — and that he had “no time to react,” police said.

Muse told police he was traveling about 30 to 35 mph at the time of the collision, police said. The posted speed limit at the location of the collision is 25 mph, police said.

Ignatuk hit the center of the SUV’s hood, leaving a large dent, and rolled off to the vehicle’s left, eventually stopping unconscious by the opposite curb, police said.

He was bleeding from his head and his left leg was badly injured, police said

Blood tests confirmed that there was no alcohol present in Muse’s system, police said.
