Bad Links? | Student injured in crashA student at McIntosh High School was critically injured in a motor vehicle crash after school Tuesday afternoon, police said. A police report identified the driver as Eric Stenger, 16, of Peachtree City. Stenger was in critical condition Tuesday at Atlanta Medical Center, police said. A passenger in the vehicle was also injured: Aaron Fischer, 16, also of Peachtree City, but he was treated and released from the hospital, police said. Police said Stenger apparently lost control of his 2002 VW Jetta on Peachtree Parkway, crashing into a tree in the median north of Battery Way. The driver’s side door of the vehicle collided with the tree, police said. Although the investigation is continuing, the preliminary information shows that the vehicle was going south on the parkway when it went off the right side of the road, crossed back over the road and then into the median where it struck the tree, police said. The department’s Community Response Team is conducting a “comprehensive collision reconstruction” of the crash scene, and there were numerous witnesses according to police. |
