SUMMARY OF INCIDENT:

 

On 2/10/22 at approximately 2230 hours, Troopers from the Middlesex barracks responded to a minor two vehicle crash on S Hill Rd in the Town of Williamstown near the Chelsea line. Troopers were advised V1 had went off the road, and was then pulled out of the ditch by V2. While being pulled out of the ditch, V1 collided with V2, causing minor damage to both vehicles. Operator 1 fled into the woods after Operator 2 told him he was calling the police. A K9 was later deployed and Operator 1 was located in the woods. While speaking with Quayle, Troopers detected indicators of impairment.

 

Quayle was screened and subsequently placed under arrest for suspicion of DUI. Quayle was transported to the Barre City Police Department for processing, and held for detoxing with a citation to appear in Orange County Superior Court- Criminal Division at a later date.
