NEW SCOTLAND — A 91-year local woman is dead following a crash in the town of New Scotland.
The “PIAA,” personal injury auto accident, Sheriff Craig Apple posted on social media, occurred Saturday afternoon near Game Farm and Orchard Hill roads. Game Farm turns into Orchard Hill as it crosses over New Scotland Road South, near the National Grid substation.
Apple wrote that it appeared “a vehicle with two occupants pulled out” of Game Farm Road into the path of a vehicle traveling on New Salem South Road.
“The driver had serious injuries,” according to Apple’s post.
The passenger traveling in the Game Farm Road vehicle was pronounced dead at the scene, Apple wrote; the driver of the New Scotland South Road vehicle suffered minor injuries.
