On Friday, at 2:10 p.m., Frostburg City Police responded to a motor vehicle crash on New Georges Creek Road at Village Parkway. Upon investigating at the scene, police learned that Roberto Joseph Anthony Sabatini, 32, of Warren, Ohio, had been traveling northbound on New Georges Creek road in a 2015 Jeep. Sabatini stopped and signaled an intention to turn left onto Bishop Murphy Drive. Timothy James Fetters, 31, of Cumberland, was traveling behind Sabatini in a 2011 Kia.
