MASSILLON, Ohio — An investigation of a crash that involved two Massillon school buses has led to charges against a Canton man.
The Summit County Sheriff’s Office said 55-year-old Doc Shaffer has been charged with impersonating a peace officer and other traffic violations in connection with the Nov. 28 crash.
The crash, which took place on Interstate 77, injured 21 people and one of the school buses caught fire.
Authorities said Shaffer, who owns a private funeral escort service, was escorting the buses on a three-wheeled motorcycle equipped with lights and stars that resembled a sheriff’s vehicle.
He was also found to be wearing a uniform resembling that of a sheriff’s deputy, including patches on the sleeves and a breast badge, and many crash witnesses perceived him as a law enforcement officer, the sheriff’s office said.
