Sonora Man Injured

Sponsored by:

Long Barn, CA — A Sonora man was flown to Memorial Medical Center in Modesto following an accident near Long Barn yesterday.

The CHP says 46-year-old George Chaney was traveling on Highway 108 near the west Long Barn entrance when he drifted across the eastbound lane and off the south roadway shoulder. The CHP found that Chaney had fallen asleep at the wheel. The Ford F-350 struck three pine trees before coming to a rest. The only other passenger was a six year old who suffered minor injuries. The accident was reported during the noon hour.
