WASHINGTON, D.C. â Jennifer Savage, a Cecil County native who is a 1989 Bohemia Manor High School graduate, was serving as a diplomat at the U.S. Embassy in Quito, Ecuador on Jan. 12, 2010, when she received orders from the Department of State in Washington D.C. to fly to Haiti and assist.
Earlier that day, the island country had experienced a 7.0 earthquake that destroyed hundreds of buildings, leaving approximately 250,000 people dead, roughly 300,000 others injured and about 1.5 million residents homeless.
A U.S. military plane transported Savage from Ecuador to the Dominican Republic, which comprises the other half of the island shared with Haiti, after she was given her assignment.
Two Manor HS students injured in early-morning crash
Both drivers have been arrested following an early-morning crash involving seven students from Manor High School.
Only one person was in a white truck, which slid off the road and onto its side, but in a red truck; there were seven teenagers. It appears that the red Toyota was struck on its left front, it wasn’t a head-on but on the front corner of that front panel, said Lt. Lawrence Rideau.
Three of the teenagers were riding in the truck bed. So it’s very dangerous to ride in the back of a pick-up truck at any time, because there is no seat belts back there. It’s easy to get ejected from the back of a pickup truck and that’s what happened in this instance, said Rideau.
