Two teenage females from Union County suffered possible/unknown injuries during a single-vehicle accident Thursday morning. Authorities say a 1999 Oldsmobile Alero driven by 17-year old Breanna Ripperger, of Afton, was traveling south on Creamery Road at around 9:30-a.m., when the vehicle hit a patch of frost as it entered an “S” curve in the road. The car entered the north ditch and then went into a deep gully.

Ripperger, and her passenger, 17-year old Dalli McIntire, of Afton, were helped out of the vehicle and gully, by a fireman with a ladder. The girls complained of pain, but were not transported to the hospital.

The car was totaled during the mishap. No citations were issued.
