First Responders Respond to Two Recent Accidents in North Adams

Staff Reports

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — First responders in North Adams were called to two separate vehicle crashes in recent days, resulting in four hospitalizations.

According to North Adams 911, on Saturday, Oct. 10, around 2:30 p.m., there was a head-on collision between a car and a pickup truck on Curran Highway in front of Duke's Lumber.

Both vehicles were traveling northbound when one vehicle departed from its travel lane, clipping the rear of the other and causing it to roll over.

Four people were transported to the emergency department (ED), and both vehicles were towed from the scene.

The North Adams Fire Department, North Adams Police Department, and Northern Berkshire EMS were on the scene. A State Police officer was also on the scene.

On Tuesday, Oct. 13, around 6:25 a.m., there was a two-car motor vehicle accident between a pickup truck and an SUV on West Main Street.

North Adams 911 reported that the SUV was traveling west and the pickup was traveling east when the SUV left its travel lane and struck the rear of the truck, spinning it 180 degrees to face the opposite direction.

No one was transported to the hospital. Firefighters shielded the SUV window to make sure a dog in the passenger seat could not jump out and run away.
