A Beloit police officer is expected to make a full recovery after a motorist side-swiped his squad car at an east side intersection.  Officials say the motorist rolled-thru a stop sign at the intersection of St. Lawrence Avenue and Bluff Street about 10:00 a.m. Sunday.  The officer only suffered bumps and bruises and is expected to be back on patrol soon.  Police are investigating a number of recent accidents at that intersection, where they say drivers appear to be failing to come to a complete stop.
