A local motorist suffered suspected serious injuries following a one car crash that occurred earlier this weekend in neighboring Mercer County.
According to State Police, 67-year-old Richard Deniker of Grove City was traveling south on Interstate 79 in Springfield just before 4:30pm on Saturday when a tree fell and landed on the side of his vehicle.
Authorities say that the vehicle then went off the roadway and rolled over one time. Deniker, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from the vehicle.
Officials say that Deniker was transported to a local hospital for treatment.
No other motorists were involved in Saturday’s crash.
