Newtown Teen Killed In Crash
Connecticut State Police (CSP) are hoping the public can help them piece together a crash that occurred on I-84 in Southbury last weekend and claimed the life of a Newtown teenager.
CSP reports at approximately 11:55 pm Sunday, July 6, Troop A responded to a motor vehicle crash on I-84 West, east of Exit 15. According to the CSP report, a 2001 Honda Prelude veered off the roadway, struck the metal beam guardrail on the right shoulder, continued through the guardrail and descended an embankment before coming to an uncontrolled final rest.
Spencer T. Jorgenson, 19, of Newtown, sustained fatal injuries in the crash.
He was the sole occupant of the vehicle.
The investigation remains active. Witnesses are asked to contact CSP Trooper Nicholas Rocha at 203-267-2200 or Nicholas.rocha@ct.gov.
