ENFIELD – Four people were taken to Baystate Medical Center in Springfield after the vehicle they were traveling in struck a utility pole and rolled over near the intersection of Washington Road and Till Street late Tuesday night.
The crash, reported at about 10 p.m., occurred about 2,000 feet south of the Longmeadow border. Three of the occupants of the vehicle sustained non-life-threatening injuries, but the status of the fourth person was not immediately known. Enfield police had no additional information on the victims' conditions. A published report cited a police source as saying the victims were in stable condition.
Police identified the driver of the car, a 2003 Honda Accord, as Adam Wayne Gegenheimer, 21, of 11 Sherwin Drive, Enfield. Police said Gegenheimer had three passengers in his car — a male and two females.
Thompsonville firefighters had to extricate two passengers from the vehicle. Police said the utility pole that was hit snapped in half, prompting a crew from Connecticut Light and Power to respond to the scene.
Enfield Police Sgt. James Lefebvre said Washington Road, which runs north to Maple Road in Longmeadow, was closed from Roosevelt Boulevard near the Longmeadow line to Till Street. Washington Road reopened to traffic just before 6 a.m. Wednesday, Lefebvre said.
