Two people suffered suspected injuries in a crash that happened Tuesday morning in Center Township.
State police say two cars were driving in the northbound lane of Route 119 near Lucerne Road when one of the drivers, identified as 30-year-old Johnathan Elliot of Homer City, failed to notice a car, driven by 46-year-old Timothy Chappell of Vintondale, traveling at a slower speed.
Elliot attempted to pass on the left side of the road but hit the left rear side of Chappell’s car. Both continued northbound for 300 feet before coming to rest in the right lane.
Troopers say Elliot suffered suspected serious injuries, while a passenger, identified only as a 5-year-old girl, suffered suspected minor injuries. Both were taken to Indiana Regional Medical Center for treatment.
Chappell was not injured. All were wearing seatbelts during the time.
