Police reported that Piersiak was driving alone and had no passengers. After the car accident, state troopers from the Rutland Barracks, Shrewsbury Fire Department, Rutland City Fire Department, and Regional Ambulance Service responded to the emergency.
While the actual cause of the accident is still being investigated, family members, friends, and her teachers have grieved for Macy Piersiak. Due to the situation’s sensitivity, they have refused to provide a public statement.
