3 Dead, 10 Hospitalized From Apparent Accidental Car Crash At Massachusetts Auto Auction

Three people were killed and 10 others were hospitalized from what is believed to be an accidental car crash at an auto auction in Massachusetts, officials said. The crash at the Lynnway Auto Auction in Billerica, about 24 miles northwest of Boston, happened at 10:13 a.m. when the driver of a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee waiting to enter the auction suddenly accelerated and entered the building at a very high rate of speed, officials said at a news conference this afternoon. Several hundred customers were inside the building and a few hundred customers were outside the building at the time, officials said.
