A man was killed in a late Wednesday crash in Trumbull, which also injured another person and a young child. The victim, identified as 34-year-old Daniel Demichael from Norwalk, was expelled from his vehicle during a collision on Route 8 South before 8:30 p.m., according to Connecticut State Police. State police stated that a 5-year-old girl in Demichael’s car and a 26-year-old Bridgeport man in another car were also harmed.
Demichael was driving a 2004 Jeep Wrangler south in the right lane when his car was hit by a 2021 Toyota Supra driven by a Bridgeport man. The driver of the Toyota was attempting to merge onto Route 8 using the Exit 52 entrance ramp from Route 15 South. This caused Demichael to lose control of his car, veer across the left lane, and collide with a metal beam guardrail in the center median, as per state police.
