Three people were injured Tuesday in a two-car crash in Mastic, police and fire officials said.
“All were minor injuries,” said Mike Guarino, the officer in charge of the scene for the Mastic Fire Department.
Suffolk County police said there were no life-threatening injuries in the 10:51 a.m. crash on Montauk Highway and Titmus Drive.
Guarino said the accident involved two Subarus.
“It was almost a head-on collision,” Guarino said.
Guarino said there was a male driver in one car and a male driver and a female passenger in the other, and that one of the vehicles was going west on Montauk Highway when the accident occurred. He said he was not sure in which direction the other car was traveling.
“The front driver’s side of each car was impacted,” Guarino said. He added that when firefighters arrived, the three who were injured were already in Mastic ambulances and were taken to Brookhaven Memorial Hospital Medical Center in Patchogue for treatment.
