Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded about 6:30 a.m. November 20, 2023 to a report of a crash with injuries on Fairfield Road in the area of Nippersink Road. When deputies arrived, they located two vehicles with heavy damage on Fairfield Road north of Nippersink Road.




One of the crash victim was entrapped in a vehicle for a prolonged period, and was extricated about 7:17 a.m.

Both drivers were transported to area hospitals with critical injuries. The children were transported to area hospitals with serious injuries, but those injuries are believed to be non-life-threatening.

An open container of alcohol was located in the Chevrolet, according to Lake County Sheriff’s Office.
