  Suspected Dispute Leads to Single Car Crash web posted February 19, 2013 EDGEFIELD – A possible domestic dispute between a boyfriend and girlfriend Sunday morning may have lead to a single car crash on Country Club Road that left both of the occupants being transported to an Augusta hospital for treatment of injuries. According to an incident report, the 21-year-old woman grabbed the steering wheel after the driver told her he wished she would die. The man reportedly lost control of the 1997 Toyota Camry, crossed the oncoming lane, and struck two trees before the car overturned. Sheriff's Deputies and the Edgefield Fire Department responded to the scene as did county EMS. Once it was learned that the female passenger may have caused the crash, the Edgefield County Sheriff's Office instigated a criminal investigation. The crash is also being investigated by the South Carolina Highway Patrol. The driver and his girlfriend were transported to an area hospital for treatment. The driver sustained a knee injury requiring a number of stitches. The girlfriend reportedly had no visible injuries at the time of transport. No charges have been filed at this time and the investigation is ongoing. 132242 © Copyright 2012 - 2013 All material is property of
