Man and woman flee crash scene on foot
web
posted August 1, 2008
MERRIWETHER –
Residents on Gregory Lake
Road called 911 to report a crash near the lake around 10 pm Thursday
night. When they went to investigate a man and a woman were seen
fleeing from the crash scene on foot down a steep embankment. When
Deputies arrived they had to direct traffic due to the crash being
located between two sharp curves until additional units could arrive.
The owner of the 2001 Honda Accord was shown to be a Hephzibah man and
a bankcard with his name on it was found inside the car. The owner was
unable to be contacted. The keys were missing from the car and it was
left with no lights on to warn unsuspecting drivers of the crash.
According to
information from the scene, the driver and passenger were
traveling on Gregory Lake Road towards Martintown Road when the driver
failed to navigate a sharp curve and struck a pole and then the
guardrails on both sides of the road before coming to a stop just
across the dam.
Also found inside the car (Left) were several opened bottles of liquor and
beer and a cup that smelled of alcohol was found near the rear of the
car.
South Carolina Highway Patrol is investigating the crash. Deputies
searched the nearby woods for the two people but were unable to locate
them.
The car was towed from the scene and the road reopened around 11:20 pm.
