59-year-old Harold Heinbigner was driving a Syar Industries street sweeper on Highway 221 near Syar Industries' front entrance shortly after 1:00 p.m., when he attempted to make a u-turn, but drove into the path of an SUV driven by Melissa Alvarez, 33. The collision caused the SUV to suddenly catch fire, but Heinbigner fortunately got both Alvarez and her 3-year-old male passenger from the vehicle. Alvarez suffered serious injuries but is now in stable condition, while Heinbigner sustained more moderate injuries and the child only had minor injuries.
