Vehicle rollover
WEST CHILLISQUAQUE TOWNSHIP - A Milton man was injured in a vehicle rollover at 9:25 p.m. Sunday on Route 579 near Starstream Boulevard.
State police at Milton said a 1997 Dodge Avenger, driven by Patrick L. Snyder, 19, of Milton, was traveling east when, while negotiating a left curve, Snyder lost control. The vehicle went onto the south berm and its right front struck a utility pole. That caused the vehicle to roll to the left, and it landed on its roof. It went back onto the road and slid approximately 85 feet in the eastbound lane before it stopped, facing south, still upsidedown.
Snyder had to be mechanically freed from the vehicle and was flown by Life Flight helicopter to Geisinger Medical Center, Danville, where he was treated for injuries and released.
Police said Snyder will be cited for traffic violations.
