A 66-year-old Moonachie woman driving a 2007 Nissan Pathfinder blew a stop sign at Hoffman Avenue and Boulevard and struck a 2022 Hyundai Tucson driven by a 63-year-old man from town around noontime Sept. 5, New MIlford Police Chief Brian Clancy said.
Firefighters from New Milford and River Edge extricated the Tuscon driver after his SUV was knocked on its side against a utility pole, the chief said.
He and the other motorist were taken to Hackensack University Medical Center with injuries that weren't considered life-threatening, Clancy said.
"Officer Andrew Lignos pulled up to the scene seconds after it happened and did a great job assessing the situation and determining what was needed," the chief said. "Lt. John Moroney and Officer John Francin assisted with initial patient care until paramedics arrived."
Police issued a summons to the Nissan driver for ignoring a stop sign, he said.
All Points Towing removed both vehicles.
