OXFORD – A fatal car accident involving three vehicles took place just south of the Village of Oxford at approximately 2 p.m. on State Rt. 12. Thursday. Erin R. Larsen, 25, Afton, apparently lost control of her tan ‘98 Dodge minvan in the middle of a brief snow flurry, causing it to fishtail into the opposite north-bound lane, perpendicular to oncoming traffic, according to New York State Police.

Larsen’s vehicle was hit by an oncoming 2006 GMC Envoy driven by Elizabeth M. Gay, 71. Larsen was killed in the impact; Gay was rushed to Wilson Hospital by ambulance and suffered moderate face and chest trauma.
