Two unidentified drivers were injured in a serious rollover accident this morning on I-495 South in Andover near the I-93 exits. Around 6:15am, a Ford Explorer being driven by a 44-year-old man from Riverdale, Maryland and another vehicle driven by a 32-year-old man from Bradford somehow made contact while on the highway and rolled over before coming to a stop in the median.
The Maryland driver sustained severe injuries and was rushed to an area hospital by helicopter. The Bradford driver suffered injuries as well and was taken to a local hospital for medical treatment. Both the travel and middle lanes were shut down for the investigation and in order for officials to clear the scene. Authorities are in the process of determining what caused the serious crash.
