SHIRLEY — A Shirley couple escaped serious injury when their vehicle collided with a moose weighing nearly 600 pounds on Route 15 early Friday morning.
Greg Collins, 39, a passenger in a 1986 Ford LTD driven by his wife, Judith Collins, 39, received facial cuts and neck injuries in the 12:15 a.m. accident, according to V. Paul Reynolds of the Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife.
Reynolds said Greg Collins was transported to the Charles A. Dean Hospital in Greenville. A nursing supervisor there said Collins was treated and released. Judith Collins was not injured in the accident, Reynolds said.
The impact of the collision forced the bull moose onto the top of the vehicle, according to Reynolds. The moose died in the accident and the car was demolished.
Warden Don Annis, who investigated the accident, was assisted by the Shirley Fire Department.
