HUDSON — The 10 people taken to area hospitals following the 3-vehicle crash that left a wide area along Lowell Road strewn with debris last week all sustained injuries that weren’t considered life-threatening, police said.

Firefighters and medical personnel from Nashua and Pelham were called in to assist Hudson crews in treating the 10 people, seven of whom were passengers in a 2019 Chevy express van.

The collision involved the van, driven by Mirian Lilibet Rodriguez Becerra, 43, of Randolph, Massachusetts; a 2014 Ford Escape operated by Jennifer Groccia, 37, of Hudson; and a 2016 Ford F-150 truck driven by Thomas Francis, 30, also of Hudson, according to police.

Becerra, her passengers, and Groccia and Francis were taken to area hospitals for treatment.

The crash closed Lowell Road in the area of County and Pelham roads for several hours.

Once the on-scene investigation was completed, the three vehicles were towed from the scene.

Off-duty Pelham Fire Department Lt. Pat Weaver happened to be driving down Lowell Road and was among the first people to stop.

He assisted the injured people and assessed their injuries while awaiting emergency personnel.

All of Hudson’s three ambulances, along with two from Nashua and one from Pelham responded to the scene.

At least one of the injured people was trapped in one of the vehicles and was extricated using hydraulic rescue tools.

Police said the cause of the crash remains under investigation.
