Truck Into Pole, Cyclist Hit, Car Flips: Brookline Crashes
Tuesday there were several serious crashes in Brookline.
BROOKLINE, MA β Dozens of customers were without power in Brookline after a truck hit some low wires and knocked into a pole Tuesday morning, and before the night was out a car flipped over while driving down St. Paul's Street.
It's was a busy day across the region with a number of crashes reported in the slick, cold rain, including in Brookline. Early in the day Tuesday, near Allandale Farms a cyclist was sent to the hospital with serious injuries after they were hit by a car. And around 11:30 a.m. a crash on Amory Street - where there was an investigation happening in the park nearby - caused police to shut down that stretch of the road.
Around 11 a.m. the A.Duie Pile truck hit electrical wires and a pole, causing the power to go out and backing up traffic on Warren Street. Photos show part of the truck was damaged in the crash, too.
