On scene Deputies determined Peter Cutler (38) of Rome was traveling east on Old Oneida Road in a dark colored 2011 Ford Edge when the vehicle exited the south shoulder and into a ditch.

The investigation into why Cutler's vehicle left the roadway is ongoing at this time and no citations have been issued pending continuing investigation.
