Woman Suffers Life-Threatening Injuries in Torrington Crash

A woman was flown by LifeStar to Hartford Hospital to be treated for life-threatening injuries after a crash in Torrington on Monday morning.

Torrington police, fire and ambulance crews responded to a single-vehicle crash on South Main Street near Beecher Street shortly before noon.

Investigators determined that a Mazda sedan had hit a utility pole and had rolled over.

The 25-year-old driver was taken to Hartford Hospital by LifeStar after being extricated from the vehicle by firefighters, officials said.

She sustained life-threatening injuries in the crash, authorities said, but is expected to survive.

The Torrington Police Department Accident Investigation Team has been called in to help with the scene. Any witnesses are asked to call police at 860-489-2090.

South Main Street is expected to be shut down from Palmer Bridge Street to Bogue Road at least through rush hour.
