NEW HAVEN — On Feb. 23, at approximately 5 p.m., law enforcement and emergency responders were dispatched to a two-vehicle collision at the intersection of US RT 7 and Greenbush Rd.
According to the authorities, a Hyundai Genesis, operated by 35-year-old Anthony Perreault of Colchester, was traveling north on US RT 7.
At the same time, a Nissan Leaf, driven by 28-year-old Michael Cianciola, also from Colchester, was making a left-hand turn onto Greenbush Rd.
Perreault attempted to pass the Nissan on the right and in the process struck the rear end of Cianciola’s vehicle.
