1 injured in
multi-car crash
PORT CLINTON - One person was injured Saturday in a three-vehicle accident in the borough.
The accident occurred at 5 p.m. on Route 61 about 50 feet north of Clinton Street.
State police at Schuylkill Haven said the accident took place on Route 61 as all three vehicles were traveling south in the construction zone.
Ryan Fehr, 23, of Schuylkill Haven, driving a Legacy Subaru, failed to stop and hit the back of a vehicle driven by Kasondra Specht, 24, of Hamburg, who was driving a 1993 Lexus GS300. The impact caused Specht to hit the back of a Chevrolet Silverado driven by Leonard Savitsky Jr., 41, of Zion Grove, who attempted to pull forward to avoid being hit. Savitsky had slowed to a stop because traffic ahead slowed for a vehicle turning right onto Clinton Street. Specht had also slowed to a stop.
Police said Fehr's vehicle was towed from the scene. He was not injured and was wearing a seat belt, police said. He was charged with driving a vehicle at an unsafe speed, police said.
Specht sustained a minor injury and was wearing a seat belt. Her passenger, Jasmine Specht, 22, of Hamburg, was not injured and was also wearing a seat belt, police said.
Savitsky and his passenger, Tanya Savitsky, 36, of Zion Grove, were both wearing seat belts and were not injured, police said.
