Rollover accident on U.S. 36
On March 29, 2014 at 4:49 p.m. Darke County Deputies, along with
Gettysburg Fire and Rescue, were dispatched to US36 east of Stahl Rd.
in reference to a one vehicle rollover accident.
Preliminary investigation shows that a 2001 Buick, driven by Makayla
Pearce (16) of Greenville, was westbound on US36. Pearce was
going around a curve and lost control of her vehicle. Pearce's
vehicle slid off the left side of the road and struck a guard rail
causing Pearce's vehicle to overturn and roll down an embankment.
Pearce was treated by Gettysburg Rescue and was transported to Wayne
Hospital with serious injury. The MICU from Miami Valley Hospital
was dispatched to meet Gettysburg Rescue at Wayne Hospital to transfer
Pearce to Miami Valley Hospital, due to CareFlight being unable to fly
in reference to weather conditions.
This accident remains under investigation by the Darke County Sheriff's
Office.
