Philip H. Rebmann, of Corfu, reportedly fell asleep while driving on Fargo Road in Darien around 3 p.m. yesterday, according to a Sheriff's Office accident report. His 2001 Olds two-door sedan traveled off the road, hit a rock, continued over a private driveway and slammed into a tree.
Rebmann, 65, complained of chest soreness, but was not transported to the hospital.
The vehicle was registered to a Darien Center woman.
Initial reports said the driver claimed his car had been run off the road. A passerby had taken him to a nearby residence.
