Cramer wrote that his son, Ian, “was involved in a police chase which resulted in an accident that killed an officer.”
The senator claimed Ian “suffers from severe mental disorders which manifest in severe paranoia and hallucinations.”
“Our daughter was able to track the car through Kris’ cell phone and lead officers to him in Mercer County, ND. We don’t have more details right now but will work with authorities to properly inform the public,” Cramer wrote.
“I will take the first flight I can to be with our family as we grieve what has happened.”
“We grieve especially for the family of the hero who tried to help Ian, and we pray for our gracious God to show up as He always does in tragedy.”
“We ask the public for prayers for the lost officer’s family and colleagues who serve us every day and are grateful for all they do for us,” the senator wrote.
“We also ask God for healing for Ian. We love him and hurt deeply.”
Charges against Ian Cramer are pending as the North Dakota Highway Patrol investigates the crash.
