A Tyrone woman was involved in an accident on Van Scoyoc Road (SR 4033) in Snyder Township on Dec. 11 at 3:35 p.m.
Police said 18-year-old Jayne McPhail was traveling east and said she encountered a vehicle traveling in the opposite direction in her lane of travel. She swerved to the right and avoided colliding with the vehicle. She then swerved to the left and over-steered, which caused the vehicle to spin counterclockwise and out of control. Her SUV skidded across both lanes and entered a ditch along the northern edge of the road, coming to a final rest facing west.
McPhail was wearing a seat belt and was not injured. A 17-year-old female passenger from Tyrone was also wearing her seat belt and was not hurt. The SUV had disabling damage and had to be towed from the scene.
