A single-vehicle crash near Jefferson Street and Black Canyon Access left three people injured early Saturday morning, including a woman whose condition was listed as extremely critical. Two adults involved in the wreck were described as stable, and all three were taken to local hospitals for treatment.
Firefighters arriving at the scene found a single-vehicle accident with a total of three patients, according to ABC15. Police told the station that all three patients were treated at local hospitals following the crash. Beyond those details, no official cause for the collision has been released.
What Remains Unknown
The exact timing of the crash has only been described as early Saturday morning, and no further details about the victims — including their names, ages, or which hospitals treated them — have been made public. The station's report also does not identify what led to the single vehicle leaving the roadway near Black Canyon Access.
No official statement from Phoenix police or fire beyond what was relayed through the same outlet's account has surfaced, leaving the circumstances of the crash largely unexplained for now.
A Separate Central Phoenix Crash For Comparison
The Jefferson Street crash isn't the only recent multi-victim collision reported in the area. In a separate incident near 20th and Jefferson streets, Phoenix fire crews responded at about 7 a.m. to a two-vehicle crash involving an SUV and a U-Haul, as reported by ABC15. Five patients were located at that scene, with two needing to be pulled from the wreckage.
That crash left a nine-year-old girl and three adults hospitalized, with two adults from the SUV reported in critical condition, per the same outlet's account. A man who had been riding in the U-Haul was also injured and taken to a hospital in stable condition. The two incidents remain separate and unrelated beyond their shared Jefferson Street connection.
