Saturday morning at 2:32 a.m. State Troopers responded to a call that a vehicle had struck a house. 

Police arrived at 323 Evans St. in the Village of Richburg to find Richard Sexton, 47 of Bolivar seated in the driver's seat of a red pick-up truck that hit the house off the west shoulder of the roadway. 

He was transported to Olean General Hospital to be treated for injuries sustained in the accident.
