Massachusetts State Police cruiser involved in crash on Braga Bridge

Three people, including two Massachusetts State Police troopers, were taken to the hospital Friday after a crash on the Braga Bridge.

 

According to state police, the cruiser was “engaged in an emergency response” and heading eastbound in the left lane around 5:15 p.m. A vehicle in front of the cruiser went to move into the middle lane to allow the troopers to pass, but struck another vehicle and spun out, causing it to hit the cruiser too.

 

Police said the cruiser was being driven by a senior trooper who was training a new trooper in the passenger seat.

 

Both of them, along with one of the other drivers, suffered injuries that are not considered life-threatening, according to police.
