Accident on Rte. 32 injures deputy

The Daily Mail is reporting that both a Greene County Sheriff's Office squad car and a minivan were totalled in a crash on Rte. 32 in Cairo yesterday. Interestingly, the Sheriff's Office is refusing to comment on the accident at all. Still, the newspaper has managed to construct a general idea of what happened via bystander accounts and the New York State Police:

State Police Sergeant Mark McTague at Catskill said Deputy Tor Tryland was traveling northbound when a southbound vehicle driven by Anthony Haack of Wappingers Falls attempted to make a left turn onto Evergreen Drive. The vehicles collided head on and the police cruiser came to rest near a phone pole.

The accident was a bad one -- the Daily Mail has a picture of the minivan, which was totally destroyed.
