Ice Storm Leads to One Fatality

A severe ice storm on Sunday in Connecticut led to several accidents and resulted in one fatality.

According to New Haven police, the fatal accident happened at around 8 a.m. at North Frontage Road in New Haven. It appears that 88 year old Elizabeth Mohr, of Woodbridge, lost control of her vehicle and hit a utility pole. Although local nurses who were at the scene of the accident tried to help her, her injuries were too severe and she died.

There were so many accidents around the state the same day that residents were urged not to travel until noon on Sunday.

Greenwich police reported collisions all over town, not only vehicles but also pedestrians falling over. In New Canaan there were numerous accidents and several vehicles were abandoned on the roads and highways.
