Fatal Tractor-Trailer Collision on Connecticut's I-84 Claims One Life

Early morning crash involving two tractor-trailers on Interstate 84 results in one fatality and environmental concerns.

Two tractor-trailers collided on Connecticut's Interstate 84 near the Ashford-Union town line around 2 a.m., resulting in one death.
The collision caused both vehicles to veer off the road and land in a roadside pond, raising environmental contamination concerns.
State police, along with environmental and consumer protection officials, responded to the scene to assess the situation.
The crash led to the closure of Interstate 84 eastbound for several hours, with only the left lane reopening by the afternoon.
This incident marks the third deadly tractor-trailer crash on a Connecticut highway in just over a month.
