Eight injured in Mass Pike crash

By John M. Guilfoil, Globe Correspondent

Eight people were hospitalized this morning after a three-car accident on the Massachusetts Turnpike eastbound in Framingham.

Witnesses described a black BMW sedan speeding and quickly changing lanes shortly before 8:30, said State Police Lieutenant Barry O'Brien.

When a frightened driver swerved to avoid the BMW, she set off a collision that included her car and two others.

All three drivers and their passengers, including three children, 11, 9 and 7, were taken to area hospitals, but police said none had life-threatening injuries. Police said the BMW has not been found.
