FULTON, N.Y. -- A 22-year-old Long Island woman was killed in a car crash Wednesday in upstate New York, authorities said.
Melanie Ott, of West Babylon, was riding in a car driven by 29-year-old Jason Cicero in the 10:30 a.m. crash, according to the Schoharie County Sheriffs Office. She died at a hospital about an hour later.
Cicero and passenger Lewis Portello, 29, both of West Babylon, were taken to Bassett Hospital in Cooperstown with head and facial injuries, deputies said.
The car failed to round a turn and went off the edge of the road and into some trees in the town of Fulton, 40 miles southwest of Albany.
Officials said they do not know why the vehicle ran off the road, but excessive speed did not appear to be a factor.![]()
