McDONOUGH – Police say alcohol was a factor in a weekend crash which sent an 83-year-old Greene man to the hospital with a head injury.

According to Lt. Richard Cobb of the Chenango County Sheriff’s Office, Charles Brown was transported to Wilson Memorial Hospital by helicopter Sunday, following a one car motor vehicle accident in the Town of McDonough.

The older man was the passenger in a 2002 Chevy SUV driven by his son, Darney P. Brown, 50, of Chenango Forks.
