Doctor's Children Die in Car Crash


A 4-year-old boy and his 6-year-old sister are the latest victims in a series of fatal vehicle accidents in Chautauqua County.

Monday evening, a car driven by Dr. Steven Ambrusko of Buffalo was on the New York State Thruway in Portland when it went off the road, down an embankment and flipped over.

Peter and Katherine Ambrusko were pronounced dead at the scene. Their father is in the Intensive Care Unit at ECMC.

Police say the children were riding in the back seat and were in properly restrained booster seats. The cause of the accident is under investigation, but police say weather does not appear to be a factor.

Ambrusko is the director of the Hemoglobinopathy Center at Women and Childrens Hospital in Buffalo.
