PEABODY — A State Police accident reconstruction team is determining the cause of a two-vehicle accident Monday on Route 1 that sent one man by emergency medical helicopter to a Boston hospital.
The accident occurred at about 2:10 p.m. and partially closed both sides of Route 1 while police and medical personnel responded. State Police spokesman David Procopio said Route 1 North at the I-95 split remained closed as of 5 p.m. Monday.
The male driver of a Nissan Rogue was transported to Tufts Medical Center in Boston by emergency medical helicopter, said Procopio, and the male driver of a Cadillac Escalade and two passengers were taken by ambulance to Beverly Hospital.
