Police said the car came to a stop at Idylwyld Drive North before it was in a collision with an SUV in the intersection.
Following the review of dash cam video from the patrol car, SPS officials clarified on Aug. 2 that while the civilian driver did not yield to the emergency vehicle, it was the officer who struck the SUV.
A decision on whether a ticket will be issued has not been made at this time.
The 50-year-old woman who was driving the SUV was not hurt.
Investigation into the two-vehicle crash is ongoing.
