Purchase Accident on I-684 Hospitalizes Woman

PURCHASE, N.Y. -- An unidentified woman was rushed to Westchester Medical Center after she was pulled from a vehicle that flipped Wednesday on Interstate 684 in Purchase.

The vehicle was in the southbound lane when it flipped and went off the road at mile marker 3.4 at about 2:20 p.m., officials said.

Purchase Fire Chief Joseph Brefere said the fire department had to pull the woman out from the tailgate of her gray Ford Explorer, which wound up in a ditch alongside the road.

Brefere said the woman, who had been driving the Explorer, was injured but could not specifically what her injuries were.

Brefere said a male passenger was able to get out of the vehicle uninjured before the fire department arrived.

Further details were not available Wednesday afternoon.
