Two people were killed after a car crash on Sunday in Adirondack, New York.
It was on 6 February at around 3:49 a.m. that officials responded to the multi-car accident on I-87 in the town of Malta.
The crash took place when a 59-year-old identified as Fred Baxtrome of Fort Edwards was traveling in the center lane of I-87 south in a 2016 Honda SUV when his car was hit from behind by a 2018 Buick SUV operated by a 28-year-old identified as Jesica B. Dorronsoro of Halfmoon.
Officials confirmed that Dorronsoro lost control of her vehicle, crossed the median, and came to rest in the center northbound lane of I-87.
Dorronsoro was assisted by a 54-year-old identified as David H. Johnson of Stony Creek. However, while standing behind Dorronsoro’s vehicle, both were struck by a box truck operated by 34-year-old Jennifer Aidoo of New Britain, Connecticut.
Dorronsoro and Johnson were both pronounced dead at the scene.
Additionally, two passengers in Baxtrome’s vehicle were transported to Saratoga Hospital for evaluation. Aidoo was not injured in the collision.
