WINSLOW TWP., Pa. (EYT) – No injuries were reported after a Reynoldsville man lost control of his vehicle and collided with a stone wall on Monday.
According to DuBois-based State Police, the crash occurred around 3:39 p.m. on Monday, August 15, along State Route 310, south of its intersection with 10th Street, in Winslow Township, Jefferson County.
Police say a 2001 BMW 335i operated by 35-year-old Peter L. Talbot, of Reynoldsville, was traveling south on SR-310, entering a sharp left curve.

The vehicle then struck a stone retaining wall head-on and skid off the wall before striking it a second time.
Talbot and his passengers, 34-year-old Donna L. Everetts, of Petrolia, and a 7-year-old juvenile male, escaped the crash without injuries.
All occupants were using a seat belt, including the juvenile who was using a booster seat.
According to police, Talbot was cited for failing to drive the vehicle at a safe speed.
