(Updated Version)
The driver of a Chevy Aveo suffered a serious-enough head injury to require Mercy Flight Air transportation to an area hospital following a two-car accident in the vicinity of 3892 W. Main Street Road, Batavia.
The woman was initially reported as unconscious, but regained consciousness after emergency personnel arrived on scene.
Deputy James Diehl said his initial investigation indicates the Santa Fe was changing lanes when it struck the Aveo, which was stopped to make a turn.
The driver of the Santa Fe, who was not injured, is likely to be cited, Diehl said, for unreasonable speed with a hazard in the road (the stopped Aveo).
We'll update this post when the official accident report is released.
UPDATE: The driver of the Santa Fe has been identified as Heather Nadolny, 35, of 2753 Pearl St., Batavia. The driver of the Aveo has been identified as Jeannette N. Orr, 65, of 3396 Dodgeson Road, Alexander. Orr was taken to ECMC via Mercy Flight. This morning, Orr is listed in fair condition.
Town of Batavia responded
Town of Batavia responded Rescue 20 and 24. Mercy EMS responded 3 ground R/A's and their supervisor SUV. Along with the sheriff's who handled TC for the mostpart. Rescue 20 setup Mercy Flight's landing zone. Anyone know why like 15 National Fuel trucks also went by? Coincidence?
Oh so it was a 2 car
Oh so it was a 2 car accident. That makes alot more sense.
