WOODBRIDGE, Conn. — A woman was killed in a crash in Woodbridge Saturday morning after her car went off-road and struck a tree, police said.
Police, fire and emergency crews responded around 11:30 a.m. to the area of North Pease Road, between Fairgrounds Road and Amity Road, after a resident reported a car off the roadway that was "severely damaged" and "partially overturned."
Police said 46-year-old Jessica Ciola of Bethany was found dead at the scene.
Officers determined through a preliminary investigation that Ciola had been driving a 2018 Jeep Wrangler, going north on Amity Road at the time of the crash. For an unknown reason, the Wrangler went off-road and collided with a tree before resting on its side in a wooded area.
The area of North Pease Road was closed off for several hours but has since reopened. Police said that anyone with information relating to the crash is asked to give them a call at 203-387-2511.
