The Eagle Tribune reported today that two unidentified North Andover brothers sustained critical injuries in a fiery car accident that took place early Sunday morning on Storrow Drive in Boston.
According to Massachusetts State Police, the unnamed brothers were traveling inbound just before 4:30am when the vehicle crashed and rolled over near the Charlesgate Overpass. The two brothers were trapped in the vehicle, which caught on fire as a result of the impact.
Both men were rescued by emergency personnel and were rushed to Boston hospitals for emergency treatment. The two brothers remain in critical condition.
The inbound lanes of Storrow Drive were shut down for over 3 hours Sunday morning while authorities investigated the scene of the accident. Officials have not released the exact cause of the crash.
