State police continue investigation into Milton area crash

MILTON — State police said today they are continuing their investigation into what caused a woman's car to veer off Route 254 in Turbot Township and crash into a house.

Corinea Bradley, 40, of Danville, was traveling at a reported high rate of speed when her car left the road and crashed into the Jeffrey Stamm residence at 1825 Broadway, state police at Milton said.

Bradley and a 7-year-old passenger escaped serious injury.

Police said they are investigating the reason why Bradley was speeding and failed to maintain control of her car, which wound up in the kitchen of Stamm's house.

A witness at the scene said Bradley told him she wasn’t feeling well and had taken some medications before remembering she had to take her daughter to school. She said she didn’t remember much after that.

Dave Miller of Washingtonville was on his way to work just before 8 a.m. when the car passed him on Route 254, swerving in the lane.

“She must have been going over 100,” Miller said. “I saw there was a little girl in the back seat, and she was bouncing back and forth.”

Miller said he had followed the car up the driveway of 1825 Broadway Road. He jumped out of his pickup and ran to the car.

“When I got to the house, I smelled propane. I got the little girl out of the house and then went back in for the woman. She said she didn’t remember anything until I pulled her out of the car,” Miller said. “Another guy was there and he helped me get her out.”

Miller spoke as an emergency medical technician poured antiseptic on a cut Miller sustained during the rescue.

Miller said he called 911 as he was following the car weaving all over the road. He said he was going 90 mph and the car was pulling away from him when it ran off the road.

The frame house sits on an embankment 10 feet above the highway, and the tracks of the car through the lawn of the sloping yard were clearly visible. It came to rest completely inside the kitchen of the house, having smashed down an entire wall.

When firefighters arrived at the scene, at first they could see no sign of the accident, a firefighter said. Only when they climbed up a retaining wall and onto the lawn could they see the wreckage.

Miller said the unidentified driver told him she wasn’t feeling well and had taken some medications before remembering she had to take her daughter to school. She said she didn’t remember much after that.
