Rich, age 27) sustained minor injuries to her arm on Friday February 17, 2012 after the vehicle she was a passenger in flipped over after striking a large rock in front of 73 Field St in the Town of Manchester. The vehicle was operated by Justin L Wheaton, age 20, of Clifton Springs NY, who was uninjured, and occurred while he was attempting to navigate a sharp turn in the roadway. According to Ontario County Sheriffs Deputies the vehicle was traveling at a speed too fast for the roadway and conditions which caused the operator to be unable to make the turn and travel into the Front yard of 73 Field St, hit the rock and flip onto its top. Mrs. Rich was transported to Newark Hospital for her injuries and Mr. Wheaton was cited for unsafe speed. He will appear before the Manchester Town Court at a later date.
