A 27-year-old man was rushed to the hospital today after his car went off the road into Third Herring Brook, Hanover fire officials said.
The man, whose identity wasn't immediately released, was taken to South Shore Hospital with facial injuries after being extricated through the passenger-side window of his car, said Fire Captain Rob Kenney.
When Hanover firefighters and police arrived on scene at about 5:20 p.m., they found the man’s pickup truck partially submerged in two to three feet of water, Kenney said.
The car had gone off the road at a curve at the junction of Broadway in Hanover and River Street in Norwell. It appeared that the car had gone through the cement guardrail, Kenney said.
