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.
