LANDGROVE, Vt. (WRGB) —
A Londonderry, Vt. resident faces charges after reportedly entering a flagged construction zone in Landgrove and striking a flagger.
On Monday, Oct. 19 at approximately 12:30 p.m., Vermont Troopers were notified of a crash on Hapgood Pond Road in the town of Landgrove. An investigation revealed that Nicole Crossman, 52, of Londonderry entered a construction zone and went around a traffic flagger who had signaled for her to stop. While in the construction zone, troopers say, Crossman struck a separate traffic flagger, Luke Bartley, 28, when he attempted to stop her. Bartley suffered minor injuries from being struck and did not require hospitalization. After the collision, Crossman left the scene.
Crossman was subsequently located and cited for Negligent Operation and Leaving the Scene of an Accident. She is scheduled to appear in Bennington County Criminal Court on Dec. 7.
