Saturday night’s mixed precipitation and freezing temperatures proved to be too much for one Long Neck driver.

Firemen from Indian River were called to a crash just before midnight on Mount Joy Road. It appears that a Chevy Impala was northbound on Mount Joy Road passing the intersection with Cannon Road when the driver encountered a patch of snow-covered roadway and lost control of the vehicle striking a utility pole.

Besides the driver, there was also a child in the vehicle strapped into a car seat; no word on if there were any injuries in the crash.
