South Main Street was temporarily closed in both directions Thursday afternoon due to a serious single-vehicle crash.

Freetown police said the crash happened around 3:45 p.m. in the area of 170 South Main St.

First responders arrived within minutes and rendered aid to a man and a woman on scene, according to police. The two people were taken to Charlton Memorial Hospital, and police said Massachusetts State Police were notified due to “the severity of the operator’s condition.”

The SUV was towed from the scene and the street has since reopened.
