Two state troopers were hurt in a crash in Revere early Monday morning and State Police say one of them was driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Trooper John Phonesavanh pulled over a Honda Accord on Route 1 south in Revere around 1 a.m. While he was in his cruiser parked in the breakdown lane writing a ticket, a Toyota Corolla slammed into the back of his car. The impact of the crash pushed the cruiser into the Honda. State Police say the driver of the Toyota was 43-year-old off-duty trooper Shawn D’Amato.
