Fitzgerald · Answer 1

The second statement is the correct statement.

In the first statement, the phrase "bleeding heavily" is modifying the word officer, which is not what you're looking for.

On the other hand, in the second statement, the phrase "bleeding heavily" is modifying the word victim, which is correct.

I was going to say the second one but because it's either both or neither I'm saying both imply it was the crash victim.
