HENRIETTA, N.Y. — A West Seneca man is expected to face charges after the vehicle he was driving rolled over several times on the Thruway, killing one person and injuring himself and three others.
State Police say the accident happened just before 7 a.m. Tuesday on the eastbound Thruway in the Town of Henrietta in Monroe County.
Troopers say William Shanahan, 43, was driving a 2003 Chevy Trailblazer when he started to drive off the north shoulder of the road. He then overcorrected, crossing the eastbound lanes, where the vehicle overturned several times on the south shoulder, ejecting four of the five people inside.
Police say they expect to charge Shanahan but haven't announced specifics.
One of the passengers, Dustin Jones, 33, of West Seneca, was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester. New York State Police on Friday said Jones has died.
Lisa Driscoll, 33, also of West Seneca, was taken to Strong with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
Two children in the vehicle suffered minor injuries, including a one-year-old who was in a car seat and was the only one not ejected.
