Last night, in a bizarre motor mash-up that turned a vacant Boston Market into an impromptu drive-in, two vehicles—one a runaway Volvo—came to a rest inside the former rotisserie chicken hub in Saugus, Massachusetts. It was an SUV and a parked sedan that crunched into chaos at the closed store on Route 1, according to the NBC Boston report.
Vehicles crash with such force that, having veered off the road, the lone driver, a 62-year-old man from Boston, was hospitalized with injuries that, thankfully, weren't life-threatening. Wrapped in the cold metal embrace of his overturned SUV, he was rescued and rushed to Massachusetts General Hospital, as detailed in a phone interview with Saugus Assistant Police Chief Ronald Giorgetti, as reported by the Boston Globe.
As per Saugus Firefighters Local 1003, there were initially reports of multiple people being trapped. However, the sedan played a silent part in the destruction, its only role being at the wrong place—an unoccupied victim in the vehicular storm.
The police suspect the driver of the SUV is believed to have lost control, striking the Prius in his automotive ballet and causing damage, as detailed by NBC Boston.
