ONE INJURED IN CRASH ON PROSPECT

Elyria – A single car crash on Prospect in Elyria early Saturday morning sent one teen to the emergency room.

Police say that 19 year old Chris Vidovich of Elyria was traveling north on Prospect Ave around 1:20 a.m. Saturday morning when he lost control of the 2001 Nissan Xterra that he was driving. Vidovich drove off the right side of the road and struck a street sign and sideswiped a tree before striking another tree head on.

Roger Tanner of Elyria said he was standing outside with his dog Pebbles and heard the crash. “I heard it then looked around and saw the car into the tree. When I got over there the driver had already gotten out and he just kept saying “I just took my eyes off the road for a minute.” The girl got out and she looked like she was real dazed.”

LifeCare Paramedics treated Vidovich’s 17 year old passenger and transported her to Elyria Memorial Hospital for further evaluation.

Vidovich was charged with Reasonable Control.
