Additional Narrative

Unit #1 was northbound on Greenville Road just to the south of Peter Collins Road.  Unit #1 failed to properly negotiate a curve and drove off the left side of the road and entered a wet; grassy property (13024 Peter Collin Road).  Unit #1 continued through the grass and struck a pile of dirt causing Unit #1 to go airborne.  Approximately 60 feet later; Unit #1 landed on the ground and rolled over coming to rest on the driver's side of the vehicle.  Unit #1 came to rest approximately 200 feet off of the roadway.  The driver of Unit #1 was trapped in the vehicle and had to be extricated by mechanical means.  While the tow company was removing the vehicle; some damage occurred to the grassy area owned by Christopher Heath (419-203-9271). On December 29th; 2022; at approximately 1610 hours; I arrived at Van Wert Health to speak with Charles about the accident. Upon arrival; Charles was in the "trauma room" in the emergency department. Charles was being tended to by hospital staff. I learned that Charles was going to be air lifted to St. Rita's Medical Center; due to the extent of his injuries. I was unable to speak with Charles regarding the accident. I was able to obtain a phone number for Brennan Profit (Charles' son; 567-259-9644). On December 30th; 2022; at approximately 0830 hours; I called St. Rita's Medical Center to get an update on Charles. The woman I spoke
