Norwood News attempted to speak to both drivers involved in the collision but both declined to be interviewed. The male driver of a black vehicle did say that he worked for “Biz,” which we understand to be a cab service company. The other driver of a gray-colored vehicle was a woman.

 

The airbags had been released inside the black-colored vehicle and the trunk incurred significant damage.

Later, we spoke to a female witness at the scene called Carolina and asked if she could describe what happened. Speaking in Spanish and referring to the female driver of the gray vehicle, she said, “She was coming in the front and she stopped at the light, and he hit her from behind.”

 

Carolina continued, “They got out. The lady was very shocked and the gentleman also.” Gesturing with her hands indicating an west to east direction, she then alleged, “But for me, the car… the woman was coming in this lane and the gentleman was in the other lane and the lady entered the lane and that was when the collision happened because she braked.”

Carolina said there were two female teenagers in the car belonging to the male driver and that they appeared slightly injured. Asked if they were cut, she said, “No, there was no blood.” She said one was hurt in the foot and they both had gotten a fright. “They were really shocked,” she said. Asked how old they were, Carolina said around 15 or 16.

 

Another male witness at the scene declined to be interviewed. We will share any further updates we receive.
