SOUTH LEBANON - A woman from South Lebanon was among three injured today in a two-vehicle crash at the corner of Carl Broggi Highway and Lower Barley Road.

The accident occurred around 12:45 p.m. when a Dodge Avenger driven by a 21-year-old Lebanon woman attempted to turn left onto Lower Barley and struck a westbound Ford Explorer, according to Assistant Rescue Chief Jason Cole.

A 22-year-old male passenger from Seabrook, N.H., in the Avenger had to be freed using the Jaws of Life.

 

Both were transported to Frisbie Memorial Hospital in Rochester with nonlife-threatening injuries, Cole said.

The driver of the Explorer, a 59-year-old female from Chelmsford, Mass., was transported to Goodall Memorial Hospital in Sanford with nonlife-threatening injuries.

The Rochester Fire Department assisted on the scene.

Carl Broggi Highway was closed for a short period while the vehicles were removed.
