The crashes happened in the 600 block of Oxford State Road and closed the street in both directions in Middletown. The road has since reopened.
A white sedan was traveling eastbound on Oxford State Road when, because of the suspected medical issues, it went off the side of the road and through a median, which caused it to go airborne, officials said.
It struck two vehicles parked in driveways and a trailer before it came to rest on its top.
The driver and passenger of that white vehicle were extricated and taken to a local hospital. There were no other injuries reported.
A man whose 1994 Dakota truck was severely damaged in the crash said the truck possibly saved two lives.
He said the truck served as a “ramp” and kept the car from hitting a large tree in his front yard. After hitting the truck, the car went airborne, peeled bark of a tree limb, hit at least two other vehicles in neighboring driveways and a trailer before landing on its top on Oxford State Road.
If not for the red truck, “he would have been killed at this tree,” the man said.
He said the truck, valued at a few hundred dollars, belonged to his father-in-law and had sentimental value.
