In the am- New position in police dept. bulance, rescue volunteers from the McHenry Township Fire Department tend to the driver of the car. Two people were injured last Thursday morning when a car crashed in a field near the intersection of Draper Road and Elm Street. The McHenry Police and Fire Departments were called to the scene and found a white Trans Am 250 feet into a field on the southeast side of the road. Witnesses said the northbound auto went off the road at a high rate of speed, flipped, hit a telephone pole and rolled several times, throwing' the driver and a passenger from the car. The driver, Phillip F. Gran­ dinetti, 5405 Winding Creek, McHenry, and passenger, John W. O'Sullivan, 2002 Crabtree, Arlington Heights, were taken to Northern Illinois Medical Center (NIMC) for treatment of in­ juries. Grandinetti first told police a southbound vehicle was in his lane as he bounded the curve, forcing him off the road. He then said the steering may have "gone out," according to the police report. The report in­ dicated there were 152 feet of skid marks before the car left the road. The two men were formerly employees of Harborside Pontiac-Cadillac, which owned the car. Grandinetti was ticketed for driving too fast for conditions and failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident. In other traffic mishaps, Louise M. Altergott, 1517 Ramble Road, McHenry, was taken to NIMC by ambulance after the car she was driving was struck in the rear. The driver of the other car, Scott A. Baldocchi, 3410 Washington, McHenry, said he accelerated to avoid being hit by a v vehicle entering Front Street from Main. The Altergott vehicle was pushed into the rear of a car driven by Rodolfo Calderon, 8403 Sunset, Wonder Lake. Baldocchi was ticketed for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident. Three people were taken to NIMC following a head-on collision on Green Street at Kane Avenue last Thursday afternoon. According to police, a car driven by Cynthia L. Minton, of 102 S. Vernon, McHenry. swerved from the northbound lane of Green Street to avoid a stopped vehicle and crashed Into a southbound auto operated by Joanne M. March, of 1205 Bonnie Brae, McHenry. Both drivers and one passenger, Phillip R. March, were taken to NIMC for examination and treatment. Minton was cited for driving in the wrong lane. AMMO BUY In an effort to alleviate a command structure problem in the McHenry Police Depart­ ment, the McHenry City Council voted to create a new position last Monday night. The problem arose when it was discovered that the law, as written, would not allow the department to have two lieutenants. As the situation stands, Patrick Joyce holds the department rank of lieutenant and an appointed rank of Chief. Originally, it was intended that Sgt. Ray Donahue, who also serves as operations com­ mander, be promoted to lieutenant. In order to rectify the situation, the council voted to create an appointed position of commander-sergeant to cover the additional duties. A bonus of $1,500 will also be paid. The council voted unanimously to confirm the appointments of Fred Kupstis and Gary Schaefer to the McHenry Zoning Board of Appeals. Schaefer is a new member to the board and Kupstis is reappointed to another term.
