KIRKWOOD – A car slammed into a horse-drawn buggy that missed a stop sign in Pennsylvania Dutch country, injuring seven people, including an infant, police said.
All six people in the buggy – two adults and four children – were ejected in the Thursday night accident. The 3-month-old was airlifted to a hospital.
Witnesses said they found parts of the buggy more than 50 yards from the intersection in Colerain Township, about 20 miles southeast of Lancaster, where it collided with a Subaru Outback. The driver of the buggy, 38-year-old Daniel Esh, and a child had severe injuries and were listed in stable condition, police said. Another child was listed in critical condition. Two boys had minor injuries. A woman in the buggy was unhurt.
The two people in the Outback- 71-year-old driver Beverly Paul, of Annapolis, Md., and her passenger, a 92-year-old Lancaster woman – had minor injuries.
