Chili, NY (May 28, 2025) – A significant motor vehicle accident occurred Wednesday afternoon at the intersection of Ballantyne Rd and Archer Rd in the Town of Chili, leading to injuries that required an Advanced Life Support (ALS) emergency response.
The collision took place along a busy stretch of Ballantyne Rd, where it intersects with residential access points, making for challenging driving conditions. Eyewitnesses reported that the vehicles involved sustained considerable damage, and several occupants appeared injured upon impact.
ALS units from Chili Emergency Services arrived promptly and began administering advanced medical care to the injured. At least one person sustained serious injuries that required rapid transport to a nearby trauma center, while others were assessed on-site for additional medical concerns. Firefighters and EMS personnel worked together to stabilize the victims and manage the scene.
Authorities temporarily shut down the intersection to ensure the safety of both emergency responders and those involved. While no official cause has been confirmed, investigators are reviewing whether driver error, speed, or failure to yield contributed to the incident.
Our thoughts are with those affected by this crash, and we wish for a swift and full recovery for all injured parties.
