Roll-over Crash Near Campus this Morning; Cats Really Do Have '9 Lives!'

Local media report that a man and his cat survived an early morning crash today (Friday, March 12) on Main Street – right near the Daemen campus.

Amherst Police explained that the man was dangerously multi-tasking: reading a map while driving. He lost control of his vehicle and sheered a telephone pole, according to police. The mishap happened at approximately 7:30 this morning.

Main Street was shut down for a time in the westbound direction, due to low-hanging wires, according to press reports.

A WIVB-TV Channel 4 website story said the man was taken to ECMC with chest injuries and is expected to be okay.

Cameron Garrity couldn’t decide between art and math. So the Buffalo native came to Daemen, where he can have both. Because, as he says, “Daemen is a place where you’ll become a well-rounded student, accumulating credits outside of your major to forge a better understanding of multiple subject matters.”
