State police have issued reports on multiple recent accidents, including one yesterday morning on Route 119 in Center Township. Police don’t say exactly what happened in the crash at 6:47 AM near East Tennyson Street. Three vehicles were involved, driven by Daylan Dyess of Louin, Mississippi, Danny Kitchen of Indiana, and Danny Ledford of Nebo, North Carolina. Kitchen suffered injuries of unknown severity.
There was another crash reported yesterday morning, but it had apparently occurred between September 24th and 27th at the Blairsville car wash vacuum cleaning station in Burrell Township. Police say a vehicle struck the concrete station, causing it to collapse. There is no video surveillance available, and so far no witnesses have come forward.
No one was injured Tuesday evening in a front-to-rear collision on South Ben Franklin Road in White Township. Police say Roger Loveridge of Homer City was stopped in traffic when he was struck from behind by a car driven by Parker Weaver of Ringgold, Jefferson County.
No injuries reported in another front-to-rear crash, this one on Route 422 in Armstrong Township. Police say David Turner of Kittanning was slowing to yield to oncoming traffic as he prepared to turn left onto Poulos Road when his pickup was struck from behind by a dump truck driven by Richard Benninger of Apollo.
Three people, including a Homer City couple, were injured last Sunday afternoon in a crash on Main Street in Burnside, Clearfield County. Police say a 14-year-old boy on an off-road vehicle was in the center lane when Francis Plummer tried to pass him on his motorcycle, but the boy turned into him. The boy suffered an arm injury and was taken to a hospital in Dubois. Plummer and Michelle Plummer, who were both wearing helmets, suffered minor injuries, with Michelle being taken to Indiana Regional Medical Center with a leg injury.
