– A little
after 3:00 pm Tuesday a sixteen year old lost control of his southbound
truck trying to avoid hitting a deer and ended up overturning the truck
on the northbound side of Sweetwater Road about three miles from
Edgefield. Miraculously he walked away without injury. “When the
Highway Patrolman pulled up he said he figured there would be a death
involved,” Edgefield County Deputy George Dedmondt said, “so did
I.” Edgefield Daily.com photo  Josh McIlvried, 16,
of Merriwether said he was shaken up but felt fine. “We’re just so
thankful he’s okay,” Mrs. McIlvried, Josh’s mother, said. Both parents
were on the scene and very grateful it turned out the way it did, “It
could have been worse if there had been someone coming in the other
direction,” Mr. McIlvried said.Sheriff’s Deputies directed traffic around the scene which tied up traffic for a little over an hour. Mr. McIlvried was wearing his seat belt which protected him Deputy Dedmondt said adding the force of the impact into the embankment would have “thrown him through the windshield.” The scene had been cleared shortly after 4 pm.
