Two students were injured Thursday night when a car struck them as they crossed Rangeley Road. Miranda Szewc, an 18-year-old first-year student from Bangor and Allison Thrower, also an 18-year-old first-year student, were crossing from a Hilltop parking lot to Somerset Hall around 8 p.m. when the accident occurred.
Both were treated and released from Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor. Both of Szewc’s legs were fractured and Thrower suffered a fractured pelvis.
Szewc, a member of the cross country team, was scheduled to compete in the America East Championship cross country meet held Saturday, Oct. 27, at the University of Maine.
Shane Smith, 17, of Milford was driving the car. He was not injured and no charges have been filed. The accident is still under investigation by University of Maine Public Safety.
