1:08pm: Further Information from Middletown Mayor, This morning shortly before 10 a.m., a man in his twenties drove his
vehicle into the walk-in entrance of Middlesex Hospital’s emergency
department on Crescent Street. Based on witness statements, we believe
he then set himself on fire. At this time we believe this is an isolated incident. No one else was hurt.
There were multiple additional gasoline cans inside the vehicle. As a
precautionary measure, we have called in assistance from other
municipal, state and federal authorities
to assist us in clearing this vehicle and clearing this individual’s
home prior to police entering it. We are also evacuating the homes in
the immediate vicinity around his home.
The emergency room and the buildings around it have been evacuated
pending a more detailed search by state and federal authorities of the
vehicle. Representatives of Middlesex Hospital will speak in a moment in
more detail about the hospital’s response.
Also out of an
abundance of caution we have called in additional police officers and
sent them to secure other important public facilities, including our
schools, though we have no reason to believe that any of those
facilities or people within them, are in danger.
We are not
releasing this individual’s name and personal information at this time.
He was transported by Lifestar to the burn center at Bridgeport
Hospital.
We have opened the city’s emergency operations center
and it is staffed with representatives of each pertinent city agency and
representatives of Middlesex Hospital and the Middletown Schools.
I want to be clear that it’s early in the investigation and we do not know this individual’s motives.
We'll likely hold another briefing later this afternoon or early this evening and will keep you posted.
1:02pm Update: Middletown Mayor Daniel Drew said the man who crashed into Middlesex Hospital this morning is believed to have set himself on fire. There were multiple cans of gasoline in the car. 10:31am Update: Companies in #Middletown evacuating the hospital second floor, #Lifestar en route for 1 male w/severe burns, fire is k/d, all companies engaged.
