ALABAMA — New York State Police are investigating a three-vehicle collision at the intersection of State highways 77 and 63 that occurred at approximately 9:35 a.m.

NYSP investigation so far reveals that a 2017 Kenworth tractor-trailer turned off Lewiston Road onto St-77 southbound.  A 2004 Mercury traveling southbound on St-77 failed to stop at the stop sign and went underneath the trailer of the semi, which severed the roof.  The operator of the Mercury, 69-year-old Donna L. Wolter of Medina suffered head injuries, while the passenger, 81-year-old Purcil E. Buzard, also of Medina, sustained severe injuries and was taken by Mercy Flight to Strong Memorial Hospital. The Mercury ended up striking a building and a 2000 Ford before coming to rest.

The Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI), NYSP Collision Reconstruction and NYSP Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Unit responded.
