BENTON, N.Y. — A car passing a farm tractor on a curve sideswiped an oncoming van carrying 15 Mennonites through New York’s rural Finger Lakes region Tuesday, sending the van under the tractor, killing five passengers and injuring eight others plus the driver of the tractor, police said. The car driver, 42-year-old Steven Eldridge of Penn Yan, was arraigned Tuesday on charges including criminally negligent homicide, driving while intoxicated and reckless driving.
