(Colrain, MA) Wednesday evening two accidents occurred back to back on Route 112 in Colrain. Just after 5:30 p.m. a vehicle collided with the ledge on the side of the road at the intersection with Jesse Wood Lane, resulting in injuries to the occupant. Colrain and Shelburne Police Departments responded along with Colrain Fire and ambulance crews.
Then, at 7:16 p.m. a car versus utility pole accident was reported at Foundry Village Road. No injuries were reported in the second accident. Utility crews were on scene to replace the pole with minimal power interruptions.
There is no word yet on the cause of either of the accidents, however there was dense fog in the area at the time which may have played a role in reducing visibility on the road.
