from kpua: Four Honolulu police officers were injured when they crashed their motorcycles while escorting President Bush's motorcade during his stop on Oahu.
This morning, three were seen lying on the grass at the Hickam Air Force Base near their overturned motorcycles as the motorcade passed by taking Bush to a breakfast with Hawaii troops.
One solo bike officer hit a slippery spot near a curve in the road before crashing. Police say two other officers lost control of their bikes while trying to avoid the accident.
One officer had internal bleeding and remained at The Queen's Medical Center in critical condition. The two other officers were treated and released.
Police did not release their names.
In another incident, a fourth solo bike officer crashed and injured his wrist when attempting a U-turn on loose gravel last night. He was also treated and released.
