CANTON – A 35-year-old female remains in critical condition and a 5-year-old female is in stable condition following the Sept. 13 Amish buggy accident in the Town of Canton, according to an update issued by the St. Lawrence County Sheriff's Office.

A pickup truck, operated by Joshua Camacho, 34, of Russell, struck the buggy with 10 passengers that afternoon on County Route 25. A four-year-old male visiting from Michigan, and his grandmother, Margaret Wagler, 78, of Canton, both died in the accident.

The Sheriff's Office was assisted on scene by the New York State Police, Canton Police Department, Canton Fire and Rescue, Colton Fire and Rescue, Parishville Fire and Rescue, Pyrites Fire Department, Ogdensburg Rescue, Star Lake Fire and Rescue, and Potsdam Rescue. 

The crash remains under investigation.

A fundraiser is underway with a $22,000 goal for the family of two brothers hurt when a truck struck an Amish buggy carrying family members on County Route 25 on Sept. 13, according to the fundraiser's organizers.

The fundraiser is collecting money for Daniel and Henry Wagler, of Little River Road, who organizers said face steep medical costs, including ongoing physical therapy and travel to hospitals outside the region. Neighbors Susan Willson and Val White are organizing the effort and said they will pass along every dollar raised to the Wagler family, in cash or by check, whichever the family prefers.
