Driver accused of striking an Edmond officer while under the influence to take plea deal

A man accused of driving under the influence and nearly killing an Edmond police officer during a high-speed chase is expected to enter a plea Thursday.

Court documents say EPD Sgt. Joe Wells was critically injured after being thrown from his motorcycle in the 2022 accident.

Wells barely survived the crash and has since resigned from the police force.

Court documents say the suspect, Garrett Trammell, was under the influence when he hit Wells.

Trammell's hearing is at 9 a.m
