LUDLOW — A two-car crash reported at about 11:20 a.m. Friday at the intersection of Letendre Avenue and Simonds Street sent a man to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, Ludlow Fire Capt. John Moll said.
Firefighters had to use Jaws of Life extrication tools to free the injured man from the vehicle, Moll said. The victim, who wasn't publicly identified, was taken by ambulance to Baystate Medical Center in Springfield for treatment, Moll said. An update on his condition was not immediately available.
Ludlow police officials were unable to immediately provide details about the incident, including the vehicles' directions of travel and what may have caused the crash.
A dispatcher declined to release any details about the incident, including where and when it happened. He said supervising officers were unavailable for comment.
CBS3, media partner of The Republican and MassLive, reports that one of the vehicles involved in the crash was a pickup truck, which wound up on its side after apparently striking a utility pole.
More details will be posted on MassLive as they become available.
