Mishap
claims life in Newport
(by Jim Bartholow, Times
Staff Writer)
A two-vehicle mishap in Newport on U.S.
50-A Saturday night killed Kenneth R. Binegar, 49, Newport Rt. 1, and sent five
others to Marietta Memorial Hospital where they were admitted in fair
condition.
Still listed in fair condition today
are two daughters, Kyla M., 8, and Carey
L.*
Another daughter, Christina L., 9*, was
transferred from Marietta Memorial Hospital to St. Joseph Hospital,
Parkersburg, where her condition today is described as "fair."
Binegar's wife, Verna M., was admitted
to the hospital Saturday night, but was discharged from the hospital yesterday.
Also admitted and listed in fair
condition is a passenger from the other vehicle involved - Donna Cline, 18,
Marietta Rt. 1. The driver of the second
vehicle, Lanny Howell, 18, Rinard Mills Rt. 2, was treated and released from
the hospital Saturday night.
According to the highway patrol report,
Binegar was the driver of a recreational vehicle that was pulling from the
Newport Foodland at approximately 9:07 p.m. Saturday. The vehicle pulled into the path of a late
model blue auto, driven by Howell. The
car was traveling north on U.S. 50-A at the time of the mishap.
The accident report states that
Binegar's vehicle crossed in front of the car.
Apparently, Binegar was trying to get to County 25, which intersects
U.S. 50-A at the Foodland.
After a preliminary investigation, the
highway patrol has determined that seat belts were not in use in either of the
vehicles involved.
Residents of the area recall hearing
only a loud crash with no screech of tires prior to the mishap. According to the accident report, Howell
attempted to avoid hitting the Binegar vehicle by going left of center. The car slammed into the Binegar vehicle at
the driver's door. Both vehicles were
carried from the road over a concrete catch basin cover and into the parking
lot of Abicht's market on U.S. 50-A. The
Binegar vehicle flipped over on its top, while the blue car continued a short
distance further, into a guardrail erected in front of the market near the
highway.
Market owner Dean Abicht stated that he
heard the crash and that his first reaction was to go to the phone and call for
help. Another resident of the area, Mrs.
Henry Nester, stated that she heard the crash from her home and then heard a
woman's voice cry out, "Oh God help me, please help me."
A relative staying with Mrs. Nester,
Marcie Schneider, ran to the home phone for help. Mrs. Nester lives three houses from the
corner intersection, on County 25, which is Greene St., in Newport.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Dean Abicht came into
the parking lot, which was empty at the time of the mishap from the
market. The market closes at 9 p.m. on
Saturdays. She remembers seeing three
girls’ bodies in the parking lot, with one girl thrown more than 100 feet from
where the totally demolished vehicles came to rest.
Mrs. Abicht also spotted another
daughter of the Binegars under a nearby car and the third daughter in the open,
badly bruised, apparently hit by a flying part of the Binegar vehicle's broken
tailgate.
Mrs. Abicht went back into the store
immediately to get sweaters or anything she could find to keep the victims warm
until help arrived. Mrs. Nester could
see part of the wreckage from her porch and she also rushed into her home to
get blankets, rugs and sweaters for the small victims.
Mrs. Abicht later stated, "They
took my sweater and my husband's sweater with the girls to the hospital, but it
doesn't matter. We wanted to keep them
warm."
After making her emergency call, the
Schneider woman rushed to the accident scene to help, stating, "I remember
when I had a bad accident and no one helped."
Both the Abichts and Mrs. Nester
complained that an excessive amount of time elapsed before an emergency
operator could be contacted. The call
from the Nester woman's home took 19 rings to be answered, according to
her. Soon after the contact was made,
however, members of the Newport Volunteer Fire Dept. arrived. Local doctor Larry Gale was also summoned to
the accident scene. Cars from the
highway patrol, sheriff's department and an ambulance service arrived soon
after the fire deparment came on the scene.
The highway patrol is still
investigating the mishap. At this time
it is not known if excessive speed was a factor in the accident which occurred
under a yellow caution light in the middle of Newport. The speed limit is 40 miles per hour in the
village on U.S. 50-A. It is a reduced
limit for cars coming into the village from both the north and south, where it
is 60 miles per hour.
Mrs. Abicht states that the yellow
caution light doesn't "really slow cars down much," especially
drivers who use the highway frequently.
After all the victims had been taken
from the wreckage, Mrs. Nester reminded herself, "It could have been any one of us crossing that road going
for milk,"
At approximately 10:30 Saturday night
Mrs. Abicht bleakly stared through the front door of the market, looking in the
direction of but not at the twisted and bloody wreckage. She recalled that the Binegars had been
customers of the market for many years.
