Sheriff's Office identifies Batavia woman killed in head-on collision in Pembroke

By Howard B. Owens

A 34-year-old Batavia woman died Thursday afternoon at the scene of a head-on collision on Route 5 in Pembroke.

When patrols arrived on scene after the crash was reported at 3:38 p.m., they determined Nikki Stonebraker, who was driving a 2007 Ford Freestyle, was deceased.  Coroner Karen Lang later pronounced her dead at the scene.

The preliminary investigation, according to the Sheriff's Office, indicates that Stonebraker's vehicle was eastbound and crossed over the yellow line and struck a 2013 Dodge Caravan.

There was a driver and passenger in the Caravan, and the Sheriff's Office did not provide their identities.  They were transported to Erie County Medical Center with severe injuries.

The cause of the accident remains under investigation. 

Assisting at the scene were State Police, Emergency Management, Pembroke Fire, Indian Falls Fire, East Pembroke Fire, Corfu Fire, and Mercy EMS.
