At approximately 6:45 a.m., Donald Teike, 74, was eastbound on
Illinois Route 54, nearing Buffalo Hart. He was driving a white 1995
Oldsmobile Delta 88. Mary A. Teike, 64, was his passenger.
The driver told the investigating trooper that he was tired and
this may have contributed to the vehicle leaving the roadway and
striking a tree.
As a result of the crash, the driver was confined to his vehicle
for a short time before being extricated by Dawson Fire and Rescue.
The Teikes were transported to Memorial Medical Center, where they
were treated for their injuries.
Sangamon County Sheriff's Department and the Illinois State
Police also responded to the accident.
