EMS crews provided critical care at the scene and transported at least one individual to a nearby trauma center for further treatment.

Seneca Avenue, located in a residential section of Rochester, sees a mix of neighborhood traffic, pedestrian activity, and through traffic, especially during daytime hours. Crashes in these areas are often linked to speeding, distracted driving, or sudden lane changes — all of which can escalate into serious incidents when response time is short or visibility is limited.
When a crash is categorized as ALS emergent, it typically involves severe trauma that may include broken bones, internal bleeding, or compromised vital signs.
