Butte, MT - Three Injured After Car Crashes into Apt Building on E Front St

Butte, MT (September 24, 2024) – Per local authorities, speed and alcohol are believed to be factors after a vehicle crashed into an apartment building following an accident in the area on Sunday evening, September 22.

At around 5:30 p.m., Butte Police, A-1 Ambulance, and Butte Fire Rescue responded to the 1000 block of East Front Street on the report of a vehicle that had struck a building and was possibly on fire. Upon arrival, emergency personnel transported one man to the hospital and assessed two others for injuries. According to the crash report from Montana Highway Patrol, the 60-year-old man was extricated from the wreckage and taken to St. James Hospital with serious injuries.

The man who manages the neighboring apartment building and is a caretaker for the building that was damaged confirmed that residents of two of the four units were affected, though said that it is unclear if the building will need to be demolished. Currently, there is no information available regarding the suspected cause of the accident, though an investigation continues during the interim.

Our thoughts are extended to the injured victims and their loved ones at this time. We hope for their full recovery.

Serious Car Accidents in Montana

Fault determination is one of the numerous challenges that arise in the aftermath of a multi-vehicle accident in Montana, as it is characterized by the pandemonium of multiple drivers and the potential for severe injuries. To determine the cause of these multi-vehicle collisions, which frequently occur as a consequence of a sequence of events initiated by one or more drivers, it is imperative to conduct a meticulous examination of the evidence surrounding the accident and adhere to Montana’s traffic laws.

The overall stress and frustration of the afternoon are exacerbated by the general complexity and complications of these multi-driver accidents, which frequently result in a greater number of liable individuals and a more challenging legal response for any victims.
