Six people were injured in a crash on the Massachusetts Turnpike in Westborough early Wednesday morning, as reported by the town’s fire department. The incident occurred at 12:21 a.m., involving a pickup truck and a tractor-trailer near the 105-mile marker on the highway. The fire department responded to the scene with six ambulances, treating six patients, including two who were heavily trapped. Images from the scene showed significant damage to the front of the truck and the tractor-trailer in a wooded area off the highway.
At the time of the post, only one lane of the highway was open heading west, causing traffic delays in the area. Massachusetts State Police had not been reached for comment on the collision. The cause of the crash and the conditions of the injured individuals were not immediately disclosed.
The crash serves as a reminder of the importance of road safety and the need for caution while driving. Investigations into the incident are ongoing, and authorities are working to determine the factors that led to the collision. Our thoughts are with the injured individuals and their families as they recover from this unfortunate accident.
