Butler, OH — There was wreck nearly two weeks ago on Friday, August 28, 2015 that left an elderly man from Butler with injuries. Police didn’t provide a lot of information, but said that 82-year old Charles Vines was injured after his Jeep was hit by a logging truck.
This was around 8:30 a.m. that Friday morning and it happened along U.S. Highway 321/U.S. 67.
Vines had been driving his red Jeep along Whaleytown Road, headed west, when he tried to make a left turn onto U.S. Highway 321.
As he did, however, he was hit by a passing logging truck driven by North Carolina truck driver Edward Roberts, 52 years old. The accident did major front-end damage to the Jeep and Charles Vines had to be rushed to a hospital for serious injuries. The trucker, Roberts, wasn’t harmed in the wreck. Right now, police think that one of the drivers failed to yield, but haven’t issued any followup reports since the day after the accident.
