Massachusetts Firefighters, in Newton, responded to a horrible rollover car accident on Route 9 in the Chestnut Hill section of Newton on Wednesday.

The assistant Fire Chief arrived on the scene and reported a two vehicle accident with a rollover. One car was traveling on either side of Route 9. A Volkswagen crashed with an SUV while traveling west on Route 9. The impact of the crash sent the Volkswagen airborne over an 8 foot high median fence before landing on the east side of the road.

Both occupants were trapped in the vehicle and Firefighters had to employ use of hydraulic extrication equipment to release them. The driver was trapped under the dashboard and it took rescue workers more than 15 minutes to rescue him.

The occupants were transported to Beth Israel Hospital with serious injuries. The accident is being investigated by the Massachusetts State Police Crash Analysis and Reconstruction Unit.
