Two adults and two children were taken to the hospital for treatment of minor injuries following a car crash on Trout Brook Drive in West Hartford that severely damaged both cars involved, according to police. Police said 18-year-old Nhi Phan was driving southbound on Trout Brook Drive in the area of Fern Street around 10:40 Wednesday morning when she lost control of her vehicle, which slid into the northbound lane and struck a car driven by Erik Beard, 41. Phan’s Nissan Pathfinder rolled over onto the passenger side. Phan, Beard and Beard’s two 6- and 7-year-old children, who had been buckled into car seats, were taken to St. Francis Hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
