Passenger dies in fiery crash; driver sought

Staff report • November 15, 2010, 11:20 pm




One person died in a one-vehicle crash Monday evening on Route 14 in Millport, and police were searching for the driver, whom they said fled on foot.





WENY-TV, this newspaper's news partner, reported that the car hit a house on what is Main Street in Millport, killing the passenger.
No other information was available Monday night from state police in Horseheads, who are handling the investigation.


Here's the follow up from today:

Elmira man charged in vehicular death of Painted Post woman

New York State Police at Horseheads on Tuesday charged an Elmira man with second-degree manslaughter and leaving the scene of a fatal incident after he allegedly ran from his car after it crashed Monday evening in Millport, killing a Painted Post woman.

http://click.pulse360.com/cgi-bin/c...lue=A2Q64KOCRJMCY&cgroup=gannett_image300x600Troopers accused Joseph P. Upham, 24, of Franklin Street in Elmira with driving recklessly on state Route 14 in the Village of Millport, where his car struck a tree, a house and a parked vehicle. They said he fled on foot into a wooded area.
Kaylah A. Morse, 22, of Kens Boulevard in Painted Post, a passenger in the car, died in the crash, troopers said. They said she was wearing a seatbelt.
Both charges against Upham are felonies. Second-degree manslaughter is a class C felony, and leaving the scene is a class D felony.
State police K9 and aviation units were used to try to find Upham on Monday night and into Tuesday morning. The State Police Special Operations Response Team and investigators from the Chemung County Sheriff's Office and the State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation assisted.
But it was a tip from a citizen at around 10:30 a.m. Tuesday that led police to Upham. They learned that he had been dropped off near his home, and negotiators contacted him and negotiated a surrender without incident, police said in a news release.
Upham was taken to Arnot Ogden Medical Center for treatment of injuries that he sustained in the crash, police said. He was later released and taken to the Horseheads State Police barracks for questioning.
Upham was arraigned in Veteran Town Court and was sent to the Chemung County Jail in lieu of $100,000 cash or $200,000 property bond.

 
Wow, that is sad, way to young, prayers sent


I really didn't know her well, just the time she spent at the shop getting her car worked on, but she seemed to have fun with it. Liked to sit and chat, liked to talk about her car. She really didn't have the abilities to work on it, but she wanted to know everything about it.

Lew would pick on her about her car, a '90 Olds Cutlass, calling it the "granny mobile," and she'd take it in stride and pick right back.
 
Sounds like she brought many smiles to everyone she met Robert even though she was with them a short time, Very sad.
Prayers to all of the family and friends.
 
Prayers to the family, was wondering what all the cop cars and a helicopter were doing on Rt 17 at that time, must have been 20 cars/suv's/unmarkeds rolling from Horseheads to Elmira....tried to find info on the scanner, but must have been keeping it quiet...terrible!
