Darke County Sheriff
Woman seeks ride;
deputies discover injury accident
On March 25, 2017 at approximately 2:56 AM Darke County Deputies
responded to a residence in the 1600 block of Mills Road for a female
who was knocking on a door intoxicated stating she was dropped off and
needing a ride. Once the Deputy was on scene, he realized there
was an injury crash and New Madison Fire and Tri-Village Rescue and
Careflight was dispatched.
Preliminary investigation revealed a silver 2004 Chevy Cavalier
occupied by two adult females was traveling westbound in the 1600 block
of Mills road and the driver failed to negotiate a curve driving off
the right side of the road and colliding with a guardrail and flipping
over the guardrail and coming to rest in a field, ejecting both female
occupants. One occupant was taken to Miami Valley Hospital by
Careflight for serious injuries, and the other occupant was transported
to Reid Hospital in Richmond, IN. The driver is unknown at this
time. Alcohol and speed are believed to be factors in this
crash.
This accident remains under investigation by the Darke County Sheriff's
Office.
