Lorain – One man was flown from the scene of a two car collision Saturday night in critical condition after officials say the driver of a Buick went left of center.

The crash occurred just after 10 p.m. Saturday day on the Henderson Bridge near Access Drive. Police had to block traffic on the bridge while Firefighters worked to extricate the driver of the Buick by removing the driver’s side door.

While Firefighters were cutting the car and LifeCare Paramedics were treating the victim a helicopter from Toledo LifeFlight landed on the opposite side of the bridge across from Denny’s. Once the victim was freed from the vehicle he was transported by LifeCare to the chopper.

The other driver was treated but his injuries did not seem serious.

The Lorain Police Department Traffic Division is investigating the cause of the crash.
