Huntington
officials responded to a call for an overturned vehicle in Huntington
Harbor off West Shore Road by a manager at the Huntington Yacht Club.
During the slick road conditions at 9:40 a.m. Thursday,
the vehicle spun out, flipped over, rolling twice and landing on all
four tires in an upright position on the sand, according to officials.
Senior Harbormaster Fred Uvena, Senior Bay Constable Jeff Kropp
and Bay Constable Tim Lutz responded, notified Suffolk County Police
Department and Huntington Community First Aid Squad, and assessed the
driver and passenger for injuries. The driver suffered not
life-threatening injuries.
The occupants were able to walk out of the vehicle and to the
ambulance with help from the Harbormaster’s Office and HCFAS, who
treated both individuals at the scene.
