ALCOHOL SUSPECTED IN CRASH

On August 1st, 2010, at approximately 1:46 AM, Darke County Deputies, along with Gettysburg Fire and Gettysburg Rescue were dispatched to US Route 36 and Arcanum Bears Mill Road in reference to a two vehicle injury accident.

Preliminary investigation revealed a Pontiac Grand Prix, driven by Joshua Weymer, 19, Arcanum, was approaching Arcanum Bears Mill Road from the East when he attempted to turn South onto Arcanum Bears Mill Road. A Red Pontiac G5 driven by Tyler Treon, 27, of Greenville , attempted to pass within the intersection, colliding with Weymer's vehicle.

Careflight was called to the scene and Weymer was airlifted to Miami Valley Hospital . A passenger in Weymer's vehicle was transported to Wayne Hospital by Gettysburg Rescue. Treon refused treatment at the scene.

Alcohol is suspected and possibly a contributing factor in the accident. US Route 36 was closed at the intersection for nearly two hours while the investigation took place. This accident remains under investigation.

  1. why is alcohol suspected? did they find evidence of it at the scene? or just because it's always assumed to be involved in any accident these days?
