Three-Car Crash on Curran Highway Flips Vehicle

The collision caused on vehicle to flip over. 

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — A three-car accident on Curran Highway on Monday afternoon caused no serious injuries, despite one of the cars flipping during the crash.

The accident happened in front of Uniq Vape at about 4:16 p.m., with police, Northern Berkshire EMS and the Fire Department arriving soon after to assess the crash site and help one of the occupants with minor injuries. An initial collision between two vehicles blocked the northern traffic lane, causing a second crash to occur with the third vehicle.

"It appears that two of the vehicles were traveling southbound. One was stopped to turn into the Uniq Vape shop," said Sgt. Preston Kelly, who was directing traffic around the crash site. "The second vehicle failed to stop in time, rear-ended the vehicle making the lefthand turn, which caused that vehicle to be pushed into the northbound lane, which collided with the vehicle going northbound, which caused that vehicle to roll over."

Kelly said the injury to one of the vehicle occupants did not appear to be serious and everyone else involved in the accident was unharmed. Two of the vehicles were towed away from the scene shortly after the crash, while the third needed to be flipped, placed on a flat-bed truck and driven away.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The Superintendent's Award has been presented to Landon LeClair, a senior in McCann Technical School's advanced manufacturing course. 

 

The presentation was made last Thursday by Superintendent Jame Brosnan after Principal Justin Kratz read from teachers' letters extolling LeClair's school work, leadership and dedication. 

 

"He's become somewhat legendary at the Fall State Leadership Conference for trying to be a leader at his dinner table, getting an entire plate of cookies for him and all his friends," read Kratz to chuckles from the School Committee. "Landon was always a dedicated student and a quiet leader who cared about mastering the content."

 

LeClair was also recognized for his participation on the school's golf team and for mentoring younger teammates. 

 

"Landon jumped in tutoring the student so thoroughly that the freshman was able to demonstrate proficiency on an assessment despite the missed class time for golf matches," read Kratz.

 

The principal noted that the school also received feedback from LeClair's co-op employer, who rated him with all fours.

 

"This week, we sent Landon to our other machine shop to help load and run parts in the CNC mill," his employer wrote to the school. LeClair was so competent the supervisor advised the central shop might not get him back.
