Pedestrian Struck, Seriously Injured in Andover Accident

The Eagle Tribune reports that an Andover man sustained serious injuries yesterday after he was hit by a vehicle while he was walking across Dascomb Road in Andover.

What Happened

The unidentified 58-year-old pedestrian was crossing Dascomb Road around 6:00 p.m. when a 56-year-old driver struck him with his Honda Civic.  The pedestrian was reportedly stuck underneath the vehicle, which had to be lifted up in order to rescue the injured man.  One of the man’s shoes was found in the middle of the roadway.

Officials have reported that there was extensive damage to the windshield on the passenger side of the vehicle.  The unnamed pedestrian was rushed to an area hospital before he was transported to a Boston hospital for further medical treatment.

The accident happened in the area of Lovejoy Road.  There is a traffic light at the intersection where the accident occurred.  The roadway was shut down for roughly 4 hours to allow for a reconstruction of the accident.  Authorities are continuing to investigate the serious pedestrian accident.
