A two vehicle accident occurred which resulted in two people placed in stretchers and sent into emergency care via ambulance. The collision spread debris across the street.
The accident occurred at around 10:20am, on East 4th St, in front of Gary’s Super Foods. According to a witness, a Toyota, occupied by two individuals, was heading east when it collided with the driver’s side of a Chevrolet, believed to be occupied by one person. The witness said that the Chevrolet was pulling out of the Gary’s Super Foods parking lot.
The driver of the Chevrolet, as a result of the collision, was stuck in the vehicle. Responding units worked for approximately fifteen minutes before the person was removed from the vehicle. The front end was smashed in and the curtain airbags had deployed from the collision. Once the person was freed from the vehicle, they were placed on a stretcher then transported away via ambulance.
It’s believed that the Toyota was occupied by two individuals, one person was transported to an ambulance on a stretcher and the other individual, a male, appeared to be bleeding from the forehead but not seriously injured.
An accident occurred at the same location just a few weeks ago which also required an emergency ambulance transport.
