Police Log: July 5, 2009 — Personal-injury accident

MORRISONVILLE — Seven people, including several children and a pregnant woman, were taken to the hospital following a three-vehicle accident on Route 374 Friday evening.

Plattsburgh-based State Police said Mason Taylor was stopped on Rand Hill Road around 5:45 p.m. when he attempted to cross the state roadway and collided with Ronald Dubrey's van, which was eastbound.

The crash sent Taylor's car spinning into Carol Dominy's truck, which was stopped at the nearby stop sign.

Police said the accident left Dominy, 44, of Morrisonville with a minor arm injury and sent the passengers in Dubrey's vehicle to the hospital for precautionary evaluation.

Dubrey, 37, of Plattsburgh was not injured.

Taylor, 17, of Plattsburgh, whose young passenger was also evaluated for precautionary reasons, was later ticketed for failing to keep right.

All three vehicles were towed.
