Feb 8, 2025 at 10:27 PM

An alarming incident unfolded on Saturday morning in Brockton, Massachusetts, when a vehicle veered off course and collided with a utility pole before coming to rest inside a cemetery. Emergency services were called to North Cary Street just after 11 a.m., where they discovered two individuals trapped inside the damaged car, both sustaining severe injuries. Authorities are currently investigating the cause of this accident, which marks the second serious collision on the same street within three days.

The sequence of events began as the vehicle was traveling southbound on North Cary Street. According to preliminary reports from local law enforcement, it appears that the driver attempted to change lanes, causing the car to jump the curb. This led to the catastrophic impact with the utility pole and subsequent entry into the adjacent cemetery grounds. Firefighters had to employ specialized equipment to extricate both occupants from the wreckage.

Notably, this incident follows another tragic crash that occurred only two days prior on the same street. On Thursday, a separate vehicle struck a tree several blocks away, resulting in two fatalities and one additional injury. The recurrence of such accidents in such a short span has raised concerns about road safety in the area.

As investigations continue, officials are urging drivers to exercise caution on North Cary Street and surrounding areas. The community remains shaken by these back-to-back incidents, highlighting the need for increased vigilance and possibly enhanced traffic measures to prevent future tragedies.
