Three children, three adults taken to hospital after accident

Posted on August 22nd, 2011 No Comments

A collision between two vehicles occurred in Worcester on Sunday evening.

A Nissan Murano and a Hyundai Elantra were heavily damaged after colliding at the intersection of Steelman Road and Valley Forge Road. All passengers were able to escape the vehicles on their own, except for an infant who was in the back seat of the Hyundai, and a woman who was trapped in the passenger seat of the same car.

The woman was told to keep still until emergency responders had arrived at the scene of the accident. The Jaws of Life were used to remove the trapped woman from the car. The Volunteer Medical Service Corps of Lansdale transported the individuals involved in the collision to hospitals in the area.

The cause of the accident and the injuries sustained by the passengers has not yet been disclosed.

Harrisburg Woman Escapes Injury in Car Accident

Posted on August 2nd, 2011 No Comments

Two people escaped injury in a Harrisburg car accident Sunday.

According to officials with the Pennsylvania State Police at Schuylkill Haven, a Richland man and Harrisburg woman were uninjured in a single-vehicle car accident. The accident occurred shortly after 10:00 a.m. in Pine Grove Township. Troopers say 36 year-old Richland resident Christopher A. Stevenson was traveling east on Mexico Road in a 2002 Mazda Protégé when the accident happened. His passenger was 27 year-old Harrisburg resident Beth Goodman.

According to the accident report, a deer ran out in front of Stevenson’s vehicle near state Route 501. Troopers say Stevenson swerved to avoid the animal and struck an embankment on the south side of the roadway. The impact broke the driver’s side window and side-view mirror, police say.

Neither Goodman nor Stevenson was injured in the accident.

Posted on November 15th, 2010 No Comments

A 70-year old man was tragically killed in a two-vehicle accident in Peters Township this past Saturday morning.  According to the Pennsylvania State Police, the accident occurred on U.S. 30 at around 8:00 A.M.

Leroy Kipe of Chambersburg, Pennsylvania was traveling in the eastbound lanes of the highway when he reportedly drove through a red traffic light at the intersection of U.S. 30 and Fort Loudon Road.  Kipe’s 2000 GMC Yukon was then hit by a 2003 Acura MDX driven by 41-year old Donna Fields.

The collision pushed Kipe’s vehicle into the median just north of the intersection.  The vehicle then proceeded to roll over multiple times.  Kipe was ejected from his vehicle and pronounced dead at the scene of the accident.  A passenger in his vehicle was transported to a nearby hospital with not life threatening injuries.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Kipe’s family and friends during this difficult time.

F&M student hit in car accident

Posted on September 20th, 2010 No Comments

Last week, a Franklin & Marshall student was injured in a pedestrian accident at the intersection of Harrisburg Ave. and College Ave..  The accident occurred on Tuesday at 9:54 AM when a vehicle struck a student crossing the road in a wheelchair.

Witnesses to the accident say the student was crossing on Harrisburg from the College Row side of the street to the campus side.  Then, a driver trying to turn before the light changed quickly turned left and hit the student.  According to reports, the driver was unable to see the student because cars driving in the opposite direction blocked their view.

The student was transported to a nearby hospital by emergency medical services.  Public Safety authorities have determined that the student had the right of way.  Investigators are using video evidence to aid in the investigation of the accident.

Woman awarded $6.8 million in DUI accident

Posted on August 24th, 2010 No Comments

Yesterday, a woman injured by a drunk driver in 2007 was awarded $6.8 million in damages by a eastern Pennsylvania jury.  The Chester County jury ruled that a Coatesville restaurant was guilty of continuing to serve a visibly intoxicated customer.

The customer, Omar Villalava-Martinez, was drinking at the Famous Mexican Restaurant and Bar in Coatesville before he drove and crashed head-on into Ryan Fell’s vehicle four miles down the road.  Villalava-Martinez was an illegal immigrant and has since been deported to Mexico.  The Famous Mexian Restaurant and Bar has closed since the accident.

Since the March 2007 car accident, Ryan Fell of West Brandywine says that she is still in pain from the accident and has remained unemployed ever since.

Pennsylvania couple killed in three-vehicle accident

Posted on August 3rd, 2010 No Comments

Two Bucks County residents were killed Friday morning in a tragic three-vehicle car accident in Coolbaugh Township, Pennsylvania.

58-year olds John and Christine Inscho were traveling northbound on Interstate 380 around 4:30 AM on Friday.  The couple slowed and stopped due to traffic from an unrelated accident in the southbound lanes of 380.  Unfortunately, the tractor-trailer behind them, driven by 48-year old Victor Sanchez-Hernandez, was unable to stop in time, and rear-ended the Inscho’s SUV.  The SUV then ran into a Chevrolet Traverse stopped in front of it.

Sanchez-Hernandez suffered minor injuries from the accident, and none of the passengers in the Chevrolet Traverse were injured.  It was not reported whether or not the Inschos died at the scene of the accident or were transported to a hospital.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Inscho’s family and friends during this difficult time.
