How they died
Vehic/Purs
Off-duty University City police officer Stephen Bastean was reportedly drunk when he made a U-turn into oncoming traffic and crashed his 2001 Chevrolet Blazer head-on into Bridgeton police officer Scott M. Armstrong's 2000 Ford Crown Victoria patrol car, killing them both. The Missouri Highway Patrol said Bastean's blood alcohol content was 0.188 percent--more than twice the legal threshold for being drunk. The crash happened shortly before 3 a.m. in Bridgeton. Bastean had reportedly been scheduled to report to work at 7 a.m.
