FREEPORT
A Freeport man was killed in a crash along Route 136 when he apparently suffered a medical event before his vehicle struck a tree Friday morning, Freeport police said.
The crash was reported at approximately 7 a.m. on Route 136, also known as Durham Road, just past the Route 125 intersection.
Freeport Patrol Officer Paul Chenevert said Robert Harvey, 75, of Freeport, was driving a 2005 Chrysler van and it appears he may have been headed to his home on Beech Hill Road when he suffered some sort of medical event, lost consciousness, traveled off the roadway and struck a tree.
