HIGHWAY PATROL

–The motorist whose accident was featured in a front-page photograph in Monday’s edition was driving a rental car rented by his mother. The initial patrol report said the Elantra was being driven south on state Route 9 near Hanoverton at 3:38 a.m. Sunday when it went off the left side of the road and overturned before re-entering the road and overturning again before rolling off the right side of the road. The accident resulted in the engine being ripped from the car, and the unidentified driver left the scene. The vehicle renter told the patrol her son had crashed her own vehicle on Aug. 20 and fled the scene. Charges will be filed once contact is made with the suspect.
