CAR SLAMS INTO POLE

Lorain – A single car crash Saturday afternoon in Lorain sent two people to Community Health Partners with non-life threatening injuries.

Witnesses who were working on East 21st Street near East Ave Saturday said that they watched as the car slide off the road, drove through the grass and slammed into the pole. The witnesses said that after the crash the driver got out of the car, at first they thought he was going to flee the scene but he went around to check on his female passenger. The two witnesses believe the car, which was traveling north on East Ave approaching W. 21st Street, was doing about 35 to 40 MPH and never seemed to slow down before hitting the pole.

LifeCare Ambulance Paramedics treated both the passenger and driver and transported them to Community Health Partners for evaluation.
