Onorato told Channel 11 they are not supposed to block streets at all. Those officers are supposed to pull over to a “safe area,” which is mostly for emergency vehicles -- such as ambulances.
That officer has not been identified, but officials confirmed she has been suspended without pay pending the result of an investigation.
