Auburn, NY : One woman was sent to the hospital after a two-car crash on Grant Avenue on Wednesday, October, 25th 2017

One woman was sent to the hospital Wednesday morning after a two-car crash on Grant Avenue in the city of Auburn.

Auburn Fire Department Assistant Chief William DiFabio said a woman sustained minor injuries, but the fire department had to use the Jaws of Life to extricate her from her car. Extrication took approximately 12 minutes, he said.

The crash, which occurred around 10:16 a.m. outside of Fox Toyota, caused minor traffic delays.

Sean Battle, an employee at Fox Toyota, saw the accident and said a woman who had had her Subaru serviced there was pulling out of the dealership's driveway. As she did, a black Chevrolet truck traveling eastbound slammed into her car. The driver of the truck did not sustain any injuries, DiFabio said.

Employees at Fox Toyota were standing on the sidewalk watching the scene get cleared. Battle and his colleagues commented on how the side airbags that were deployed likely saved the woman's life. They believed the car, however, was totaled.

New York State Police, the Auburn Fire Department, Auburn Police and TLC Ambulance responded to the scene.
