A woman who contacted the Journal-News on Thursday and identified herself as a relative of Robinson said the woman had a medical condition that led to the accident. Robinson suffered minor injuries, according to the report.
An autopsy for Dishmon was scheduled for Friday at the Butler County Coroner’s Office, officials said Thursday.

Officers who are a part of the Butler County Serious Traffic Accident Reconstruction Team continue to investigate the crash, officials said Thursday. Several representatives of the team were on the scene Wednesday.
Breez Gallo, a manager at Jocko’s, said the drive-thru is closed, but the dining room reopened Thursday.
No restaurant employees were injured in the crash, he said.
