WEST PHOENIX, AZ – Phoenix police suspect impairment was a contributing factor behind a head-on crash that left three people in critical condition.
The crash occurred before 3 a.m. on Thursday at the intersection of 79th Avenue and Van Buren Street, according to AOL. A person driving a truck was going west on Van Buren when they veered into the eastbound lane and crashed head-on into an eastbound sedan.
One person, a woman, was pinned or entrapped inside her vehicle and required extrication from Phoenix fire crews.
Once the extrication was completed, EMS crews transported the woman and two men to a hospital for treatment of critical injuries.
Police did not specify which driver was allegedly impaired and are working to determine the events leading to the head-on crash.
