PITTSFIELD, Mass. — A 20-year-old Pittsfield man was arrested on Wednesday morning after police said his reckless driving caused him to hit a van and a bridge.
 
Trevor Maffuccio was charged with leaving the scene of a personal injury accident, leaving the scene of a property damage accident, and reckless operation of a motor vehicle. Maffuccio was arraigned in Central Berkshire District Court.
 
Maffuccio was driving north on Holmes Road when he reportedly crossed a double yellow line to pass the vehicle in front of him at a high rate of speed and collided nearly head-on with a southbound van, spun out of control, struck the bridge, and went off the roadway into the woods. The van's operator and other witnesses then observed Maffuccio's vehicle drive back onto the roadway and leave the scene. 
 
The driver of the vehicle that was passed reported that Maffuccio "had been following and tailgating him since they were on Route 7." The van's operator had to swerve to prevent a head-on collision.
 
Police responded to the report of the accident at Holmes Road and Shetland at about 10:23 a.m. While heading toward the accident, Officer Brandon Gallagher observed a red sport-utility driving eastbound on Williams Street. The SUV, which had extensive damage to it, was being operated at a slow speed with its emergency flashers on.
 
"Gallagher noted the vehicle's side airbags had been deployed and that although the vehicle was being driven, one of its tires was underneath it," according to the police statement.
 
Maffuccio was driving the SUV and admitted to being involved in the Holmes Road accident when Gallagher stopped him. 
 
A passenger in the van, Shaun Delmolino, 50, of Dalton, complained of injuries and was transported to Berkshire Medical Center by ambulance. The extent of Delmolino's injuries are unknown but are not believed to be life-threatening.
