FARMINGTON — A North Jay woman was injured Tuesday morning after she swerved her pickup truck to avoid hitting a cat on Morrison Hill Road and hit a tree, police officer Matthew Brann said.
Nicole Toothaker, 33, complained of neck and chest pain and was taken by ambulance to Franklin Memorial Hospital in Farmington, he said.
Farmington firefighters assisted NorthStar Emergency Medical Services with putting Toothaker on a backboard. She was standing outside her truck when they arrived.
Firefighters also cleaned up vehicle fluids at the 9:45 a.m. accident.
Farmington police Lt. Jack Peck assisted Brann at the scene.
