BUFFALO TOWNSHIP, PA – First responders were dispatched to a crash at a home in Buffalo Township on Saturday afternoon, according to the Observer-Reporter.
Authorities said the driver of a sports utility vehicle went off the road at about 4 p.m. and crashed into a home at 3451 Route 40. Claysville Fire Department Assistant Chief Marc Scott said the driver appeared to have been heading west and crossed over the center line prior to the collision.
