EAST HAVEN -- A teen suffered serious injuries after a snowmobile and snowplow crashed Thursday morning during the snowstorm. East Haven police said the crash happened on Main Street and Gerrish Avenue in East Haven.
A 17-year-old male sustained serious leg injuries and was transported to Yale New Haven Hospital, police said. The victim’s identity is being withheld because of his age. The North Branford teen is facing motor vehicle charges for illegally operating a snowmobile in a public roadway.
A man who tended to the teen said he brought blankets out to the boy.
The truck who hit the boy didn't have his plow down on the street. It was a private truck, with a plow attached, the witness said. He was driving up the street when he hit the teen.
