JAY – Two women, from Jay and Oxford, were injured Sunday in a three-vehicle crash in front of the Lobster Cellar on Route 4. One car was destroyed and two other vehicles damaged, Jay police officer Russell Adams said Monday.
Robert St. Pierre, 51, of Livermore, was stopped in his vehicle and waiting to make a left turn into the Lobster Cellar, and Denise Poland, 73, of Oxford, was stopped behind him, Adams said.
Jeremy Munson, 24, of Jay, operating a pickup truck, said he was distracted and didn’t see the two vehicles stopped in front of him, Adams said, and his pickup rear-ended Poland’s 2000 Pontiac and pushed her car into St. Pierre’s 1992 Mercury.
Poland received chest injuries and was taken by NorthStar Emergency Medical Services to Franklin Memorial Hospital in Farmington, he said.
Munson’s passenger, his wife, Megan Munson, 22, received head lacerations and was also taken by ambulance to the hospital, where she was treated and released, Adams said.
Both Munsons were not wearing seat belts, he said. All others involved in the accident were wearing seat belts, he said.
Jeremy Munson was not injured, Adams said, nor were St. Pierre and his passengers, his wife, Ruby St. Pierre, 50, and their daughter, Kelly St. Pierre.
Poland’s car was totaled, Adams said, and he estimated that Munson’s 1988 Dodge truck and St. Pierre’s car sustained $3,000 damage each.
