Another Slew of Accidents to Report in Geneva

Here is the second group of accident reports collected from the Geneva Police Department records.

Accident with injuries on East State and Glengarry

The passenger side of a Peterbilt 387 driven by Phillip McIntire, 65, of Logansport, IN, collided with the front of a Ford F150 driven by Mark Smith, 42, of Huntley around 8:51 a.m. June 9 at the intersection of East State Street and Glengarry Drive, reports said.

There was some disagreement about the who had the green light. McIntire told police his combination commercial motor vehicle entered the intersection with a green arrow for a left turn. Smith said he was eastbound on East State with a green traffic signal when the Peterbilt pulled in front of him.
