From the position of the cars it appeared that one of the vehicles attempted to make a u-turn and collided with the second car. Police had shut down the stretch of empire from Schenectady to Troy for a short period until the vehicles were removed from the scene.

A patrolling Shomrim member who was nearby and heard the sound of the crash arrived on scene and immediately alerted emergency and rescue personal. The injured were transported to a local hospital by FDNY EMT’s for checkups and observation.
