On Wednesday, December 7, 2016, at about 12:06 pm, Douglas County 9-1-1 was alerted of an injury crash involving a side-by-side utility vehicle on land adjacent to Interstate 5 near mile post 97 in Canyonville. Emergency services were dispatched to the scene. Deputies were able to determine that the three victims of the crash were workers for Trees Inc who were working in the area. The investigation revealed that Mark Harvey, age 57 of Grants Pass, was driving the Polaris Ranger UTV. The other two workers, 52 year old Frederick Hannah of Lakeside and 39 year old Ning Southy of Roseburg, were riding in the vehicle. It was determined that Harvey was operating the UTV down a fairly steep, narrow, muddy road when he lost control. The UTV travelled down a 100′ steep embankment before coming to rest against a tree. Harvey was transported by Mercy Flights air ambulance to Rogue Regional Medical Center for treatment. Hannah and Southy were transported by ambulance to Mercy Medical Center. It was later determined the crash occurred on ODOT property.
