Two Children Injured After Crash In Horseheads

Recommended Posts

New York State Police are investigating a car crash that sent two children to the hospital. 

State Police say on Saturday at approximately 2:53 p.m., troopers from State Police barracks in Horseheads responded to a three-car collision at the intersection of Wygant Road and Ridge Road in the town of Horseheads.

A preliminary investigation revealed a 2012 Toyota Highlander, operated by 73 year old Debra L. Kenyon of Horseheads struck a 2010 BMW, operated by 33 year old Lindsey M. Runkel of Connecticut. The Highlander then accelerated through the intersection, causing a secondary collision with a parked 2010 Toyota Rav4 in the Last Stand parking lot. This resulted in an 11-year-old and a 13-year-old being pinned next to the building.

Kenyon was uninjured and was issued traffic infractions at the scene. Runkel was also uninjured. The 11-year-old was airlifted to Upstate Community Hospital and is stable. The 13-year-old was taken by ambulance to Guthrie Robert Packer Hospital and is also stable.

The New York State Police were assisted by the Horseheads Fire Department, Town and Country Fire Department, and Guthrie Air.

Police say this is still an active investigation.
