crossed over into the westbound lane. Giovannone's vehicle struck a 2002 Ford
Taurus head on.
The driver of the Ford Taurus, 25-year-old Joseph
Mormon-Tibbs, of Schenectady, was transported by medical-flight to Albany
Medical Center with serious injuries.
Giovannone was pronounced dead at the scene.
