JAY — A local man was injured Monday when the vehicle he was driving on Monday attempted to pass another one on Route 133. The vehicle then went out of control, went into a ditch, became airborne and rolled over taking out a mailbox in front of a residence, Police Chief Richard Caton IV said.
Zane Armandi, 32, of Jay was driving a Chevrolet Trailblazer north on the road toward Wilton. Officer Constantino Zenteno responded to the accident reported at about 9:01 a.m., not far from Bean’s Corner, which is at the intersection of Route 156.
Armandi is believed to have received a head injury, Caton said.
He was taken by a NorthStar EMS ambulance to a hospital. It was not immediately known which one.
The Jay Fire Rescue Department assisted at the scene.
