*** WATCH *** Frightened dog takes off from crash scene that sent two passengers to hospital…
HYANNIS – It was upsetting for all involved when two cars collided at the intersection of South Street and High School Road at about 6:15 p.m. today – 3/3/2021.
As you will see and hear in the following HN Video, there was confusion and people were upset at first because the driver of one of the vehicles took off running down South Street toward the harbor, for no apparent reason. But police who caught up to the woman about a block away, quickly learned she had been running after her dog that became scared during the collision. Both the woman and the dog appeared to have escaped the crash uninjured, just upset.
Back at the scene, the occupants of the second vehicle were not as fortunate. Both were transported to Cape Cod hospital. One of those transported appeared to have injuries that were not life-threatening. While the other patient’s condition was unknown at the time of this report.
The Barnstable Police Department is investigating the cause of the crash.
