Thu, 10/17/2024 - 14:43

Abraham’s Path was closed for several hours between Accabonac Road and Town Lane on Saturday afternoon after a man driving a 2015 Cadillac S.U.V. lost control of the vehicle and hit a utility pole.

Dennis Morocho-Sangurima, 18, of East Hampton was driving northeast on Abraham’s Path when, he told police, his steering wheel locked up, causing him to hit the pole. The car flipped over on the driver’s side, and the telephone pole crashed down on top of the vehicle.

When the police arrived, Mr. Morocho-Sangurima was conscious, but he complained of pain in his leg. He was taken to Stony Brook University Hospital.
