A story in the July 7 Gazette-

Boardman, involving Morrow
County Sheriff s deputy Mark
Calbick was incorrect.

10:05 p.m. on July 3 in Board-
man when he veered into the
westbound lane and sideswiped a
Morrow County patrol car driven
by C albick. A fter O rrala-
H e rre ra 's
vehicle
struck
Calbick's patrol car, Orrala-
Herrera's vehicle struck a van
driven by Meri Lynn Hurd,
Boardman. Hurd was westbound
on Kunze Road behind Calbick.
H urd's vehicle did not
sideswipe Calbick's vehicle, as
earlier reported to the Gazette-
Times by an Oregon State Police

Orrala-Herrera and Hurd were
transported to Good Shepherd
Community Hospital in Her
miston where they were treated
and released.
