Several Hospitalized After Multi-Vehicle Crash: Milford Fire Dep't

MILFORD, CT — Earlier this week, the Milford Fire Department responded to a multi-vehicle collision involving a dump truck, said Adam J. Hansen, who is a battalion chief and public information officer.

At 7 a.m. Tuesday, fire crews responded to Interstate 95 northbound for a multi-vehicle collision.

"Involved in the accident was a tri-axle dump truck, and a pick-up truck hauling a trailer/off road style vehicle," said Hansen. "There was significant damage sustained. Due to the location of the vehicles and the multiple occupants that needed to be evaluated, the Incident Commander (IC) made the decision to shut down the highway."

All occupants were assessed and several were transported to area hospitals, Hansen said. The highway reopened.
