In what could have been a serious incident on Monday, there were no serious injuries.
According to authorities, the incident happened just before 11.30 a.m. when a cargo trailer was being hauled on southbound Interstate 95. At around Exit 4 it then disconnected from the truck tractor pulling it and smashed into a passenger car. The car was then forced onto the Jersey barrier in the center of the highway in Cos Cob.
By the time that Greenwich fire fighters arrived at the scene, the female driver of the car was already outside of her vehicle and she was taken to an area hospital with minor injuries.
The left lanes in both directions were closed while heavy duty tow truck crews worked to remove the car from the median and the truck tractor and the trailer.
