LYKENS, Pa. — A Schuylkill County woman was injured earlier this month in a two-vehicle crash involving a horse and buggy in northeastern Dauphin County, according to State Police.

Anne G. King, 56, of Spring Glen, suffered head lacerations in the crash, which occurred at about 1:24 p.m. on August 13 on Specktown Road, just west of S. Crossroads Road in Lykens Township, police said. She was transported to UPMC Harrisburg Hospital for treatment.

An investigation determined King's buggy was struck by a 2012 Dodge Challenger driven by John L. Reed IV, 51, of Williamstown, according to police. The crash occurred when Reed's vehicle attempted to pass the buggy, police said.

Reed is charged with accidents involving death or personal injury and possession of drug paraphernalia, along with numerous summary traffic citations.
