An ISP trooper was inside their squad car on a traffic stop when they were hit.

--- An Illinois State Police squad car was struck Friday afternoon on I-355 while conducting a traffic stop.

A Toyota Tacoma, traveling northbound, failed to yield to the squad car and struck the rear driver side of the ISP vehicle. The crash remains under investigation and charges are pending, police said. ISP released a photo of the damaged squad car. "ISP Troopers work hard to protect the motoring public on Illinois roadways. We need the public to avoid putting their lives and the lives of others at risk by making responsible choices when behind the wheel. Always pay attention and move over when you approach a stationary vehicle on the side of the road," said ISP Captain Jason Bradley in a statement.
