Family remains hospitalized after Freedom crash – Salamanca Press

FREEDOM A family of five remains hospitalized after a pickup truck crashed into their vehicle Sunday afternoon outside a Freedom yard sale.

Three young children under the age of 5 and two adults are still being treated for serious injuries at Women and Childrens Hospital and Erie County Medical Center in Buffalo, respectively, the Cattaraugus County Sheriffs Office announced Thursday.

According to deputies, at 4:19 p.m. Sunday a 2007 Chevy Avalanche driven by Richard J. Neamon Jr., 18, of Freedom, went off the road and collided with the familys 2005 Dodge Caravan that was parked off the side of the road near a yard sale on State Route 98.

Two of the children, ages 3 and 4, were inside the van, while the other child, age 2, and the two adults, ages 42 and 39, were standing near the van.

Neamon has been released from Mercy Hospital in Buffalo after sustaining minor injuries. Charges are pending as deputies continue their investigation.

A GoFundMe page has been set up to pay for the familys medical expenses, which identifies the family as Dennis and Heather Dibble and their three young sons. It has raised $825 as of Thursday.
