One person was killed and two were injured in separate crashes that occurred within hours of each other Monday night in Sudbury, police said.

One driver was trapped in the wreckage after a two-car accident at about 6:49 p.m. at the intersection of Boston Post Road and Lafayette Drive. The victim was flown to University of Massachusetts Memorial Medical Center in Worcester and later died there, said Sudbury Police Lieutenant Scott Nix. The driver of the other car was taken by ambulance to MetroWest Medical Center in Framingham.

At about 10:13 p.m., a single-vehicle crash was reported on Old Sudbury Road. The driver apparently lost control and crashed into a wooded area. The driver was found unresponsive and taken to Emerson Hospital with life-threatening injuries, Nix said.

The names of the victims have not been released. Both crashes are under investigation by state and local police and the Middlesex district attorney’s office.
