ABINGTON, Mass. —
Two men were rescued following a car crash into a home early Sunday morning in Abington, Massachusetts.
The incident occurred shortly after 3 a.m. at 633 Washington St., according to the Abington Fire Department.
Responding crews discovered the vehicle on its side, wedged between a fence and the house. Both occupants, aged 20, were trapped inside.
The home sustained structural damage and issues with the electrical meter. Emergency personnel used the Jaws of Life to extricate the trapped men, who were transported to South Shore Hospital and Boston Medical Center with life-threatening injuries.
