Car gets stuck on railroad trestle
CHICORA — A Petrolia woman's car was stuck 60 feet above ground Saturday morning on a railroad trestle.
According to state police, Edna M. Angert, no age given, left Miller's Town Inn bar in Chicora early Saturday morning and took a route she could not explain or remember.
She mistakenly turned onto the Baltimore-Lake Erie Railroad tracks near West Slippery Rock Road and followed the tracks until her vehicle became stuck in ice on the trestle, which crosses above West New Castle Road, about 60 feet in the air.
Police said Angert then walked back to the road and called a friend for help.
Due to the vehicle's position on the tracks, police said it is impossible to remove by conventional means and a coordinated effort is being made with Baltimore-Lake Erie Railroad officials to solve the problem.
Police said Angert was taken to the state police barracks in Butler, where she consented to an impairment test.
Police said she was arrested under suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol and prescription drugs.
