A postal carrier was taken to the hospital Thursday afternoon after a Volkswagen crashed into his truck.
The crash occurred around 5 p.m. at the intersection of Yale Avenue and Chapel Street by the entrance to the Yale Bowl.
A woman driving the Volkswagen was traveling northbound on Yale when she drove into the truck, which was heading eastbound on Chapel.
Two cyclists were riding westbound on Chapel at the time. They managed to avoid the crash. They remained at the scene and spoke with police.
Ambulance workers and firefighters arrived on scene to help the postal worker; police described his injuries as non-life-threatening. The VW driver remained on scene and cooperated with police.
