NORWOOD, MASS. (WHDH) - A serious rollover crash in Sharon that sent a state trooper and another driver to the hospital is under investigation.
Emergency crews responding to the northbound side of Interstate 95 Wednesday afternoon found a vehicle overturned on its roof after allegedly striking a state police cruiser.
The crash occurred while the trooper was conducting a traffic stop after witnessing a 79-year-old Littleton woman attempt to make an illegal U-turn across the median.
After assisting the woman back onto the northbound side of the roadway, a 27-year-old Pawtucket, Rhode Island, man with two passengers neglected to decelerate before reaching the cars in front of him, according to a preliminary investigation.
That is when the driver attempted to swerve and in turn, struck the side of the cruiser and then flipped over.
The trooper began administering first aid to the car’s occupants, which included the driver, a 28-year-old woman, and a 1-year-old child.
Two lanes are closed and traffic is delayed in the area while crews work to clear the mess.
All three occupants of the Civic were transported to Boston Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries. The Trooper was transported to Norwood Hospital with minor injuries.
The driver of the Camry was not injured, but that vehicle sustained damage.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
