Lt. Don Pezzuto's squad car was struck by a car driven by Mary F. Lorent, 64, of Tinley Park, about 12:55 p.m. Monday, Rockdale police Chief Robert Dykstra said.
Pezzuto was unresponsive but breathing when he was transported to Provena Saint Joseph Medical Center. He had been wearing a seat belt, and the vehicle's air bag deployed.
A witness told police the suspect was talking on her cell phone "before, during and until shortly after the crash," Dykstra added.
