WARSAW, N.Y. — A car crash in Wyoming County on May 2 has left a 19-year-old and a 48-year-old dead and another 48-year-old critically injured.

Officials say the crash happened after a driver, 19-year-old Sanny Dewan, in a stolen car sped off down West Buffalo Street and didn’t stop when an officer tried to pull Dewan over.

A Warsaw Police Officer ended up finding the car crashed into another and on fire in an embankment off State Route 20A, near the Orangeville border.

A passenger in the second uninvolved car, 48-year-old Daniel Abbott, died at the scene, but the driver of that car, James Stablewski, is currently stable.

Dewan was pulled from the vehicle as it continued to burn, and police say bystanders at the scene tried to save his life. Despite this, Dewan later died at the Wyoming County Community Hospital.

Officers found out the car was stolen during their investigation following the crash. They say the car was stolen from Nassau County.
