HOPEWELL, N.Y. — A 55-year-old driver is dead after leaving the road, hitting a mailbox, and crashing into a large tree in Ontario County on Tuesday night.

First responders arrived just after 11:30 p.m. after getting an iPhone crash notification. Deputies found the car with heavy damage to the front end and the driver, a Seneca Falls man, dead inside. No one else else was inside the car.
