An Aurora officer who was seriously injured in a terrifying motorcycle crash out-of-state is finally back home thanks to a donated medical flight.
Jennifer Mills, who has been a domestic violence detective with the Aurora Police Department for 11 years, said she took a trip to South Dakota with her fiance, Troy, to purchase a motorcycle. She was riding it back to Colorado on Aug. 20 when she ran into a damaged road in Nebraska while going 70 mph. Mills said she hit a pothole, which catapulted her off the bike. She was wearing a helmet at the time of the crash.
"Feels amazing, feels amazing being on this side, seeing all of the love from the department," she said."I can't even get close enough to thanking Peak Medevac for everything they've done. I probably wouldn't have been home for months if it hadn't been for them picking me up.""Pretty overwhelming, very emotional," said Mills' sister Che Mills."From the bottom of my heart, thanks to everyone here.
