 Crash slows traffic on Highway 19 web posted February 27, 2008  TRENTON
– Sheriff’s Deputies, the Trenton
Fire Department, and Edgefield County EMS were summoned to a report of
a crash with the driver unconscious and possibly entrapped in the
vehicle on the 3300 block of Highway 19 just after 2 Tuesday afternoon.
When the first rescuers arrived on the scene they began treating the
man who regained consciousness and became combative. The man told EMS
workers and deputies he was not hurt and all he needed was a tow truck
so he could continue on his way. The Trenton man apparently had left and reentered the roadway several times before crashing through two mailboxes and coming to rest in a driveway culvert. The man tried to drive away and buried the rear tires of his pickup truck deep into the soft ground before going unconscious before rescuers arrived. It quickly became apparent that his lack of consciousness was not due to injuries received in the crash, but from alcohol that had been consumed.  The man, who
remained in his truck, repeatedly said he just wanted to
continue on his way and denied being involved in a crash. The South
Carolina Highway Patrol arrived a short time later and took over the
investigation. Once asked to step out of the truck, Larry E. Foreman,
56, of Trenton, was taken into custody (Left) and charged with DUI and
for
having an open container. He was transported to the Edgefield County Detention Center for booking. The Ford F-150 truck was towed from the scene. ©
