ROCK HILL, NY — A Rock Hill woman was killed while participating as part of a St. Patrick’s Day parade on March 14. The New York State Police in Wurtsboro responded to the scene of a reported fatal motor vehicle accident in the parking lot of the Citgo gas station on Glenn Wild Road at about 1:20 p.m.
The investigation determined that Bjorn Egenes, 25, of Rock Hill, was operating a Ford pickup truck towing a backhoe when he slowed at the gas station to speak to a subject in the parking lot.
Susan McCormick, 56, of Rock Hill, who was riding in the bed of the pickup truck, stood up facing forward with her legs against the tailgate of the truck.
Egenes concluded his conversation and pulled forward, resulting in McCormick losing her balance, falling backward over the tailgate onto the ground, and being run over by the trailer.
