Darke County Sheriff
Single vehicle
accident on Mills Road
On February 17, 2016 at approximately 7:56 AM, Darke County Deputies
along with New Madison Fire and Tri-Village Rescue responded to the
1900 block of Mills Road on a report of a one vehicle injury crash with
a possible ejection.
Preliminary investigation revealed three siblings were injured in this
crash after their Black 2000 Grand Prix driven by Brooklyn Godown 17,
of Hollansburg, was traveling eastbound in the 1900 block of Mills Road
and lost control in a curve with icy road conditions. The vehicle then
traveled left of center and then traveled off the right side of the
roadway into a yard striking a tree with the driver rear side of the
vehicle, phone junction box, and another small tree and the corner of
the house with the passenger rear side of the vehicle. The driver
and the front seat passenger Allison Godown 15, sustained minor
injuries, and the rear passenger Chloe Godown 13, was partially ejected
out the back window. The driver and front passenger were wearing
seat belts, and the rear passenger was not. Three different
medical helicopters were called to the scene but none would fly because
of weather conditions.
All three occupants of the vehicle were then transported to Wayne
HealthCare by Tri-Village Rescue and Chloe was then transferred to
Dayton Children's Hospital by Tri-Village Rescue for her
injuries.
This accident remains under investigation by the Darke County Sheriff's
Office.
