Woman dead, two others injured after vehicle veers off road in Hartford, strikes multiple objects
A woman was killed and two other people were seriously injured when the car they were in left the road and crashed into a fence and two trees before striking a parked van in Hartford on Tuesday. The crash occurred shortly before 10 p.m. in a rear parking lot of 90 Retreat Ave. where emergency crews responded on the report of a serious crash involving a single vehicle, according to Lt. Aaron Boisvert of the Hartford Police Department. First responders found that a white 2001 Acura 3.2 CL had struck an unoccupied passenger van in the parking lot. Inside the Acura, three people were found suffering from serious injuries, including the 41-year-old man who was driving, 38-year-old Christine Camacho of Hartford, who was a front seat passenger, and an 18-year-old woman who was a rear passenger, Boisvert said. All three occupants were taken to Hartford Hospital where Camacho was pronounced dead, according to Boisvert. The condition of the two others was not immediately clear. Boisvert said a preliminary investigation found that the Acura was being driven north on Franklin Avenue at an alleged 'high rate of speed' as it approached the intersection with Maple Avenue. The vehicle crossed the intersection and left the west side of the road where it struck a fence and two trees, continued into a parking lot and came to rest after striking the van, according to Boisvert. The Hartford Police Crime Scene Division responded to the scene and assumed the investigation. Police are still investigating and asking anyone with information to call the Hartford Police Department Tip Line at 860-722-TIPS (8477).
