***  WATCH ***  FOUR TRANSPORTED FROM FIERY CRASH IN HYANNIS

HYANNIS, MASSACHUSETTS –  [HN VIDEO NOTES]  –  At approximately 1:16 a.m. this morning, Barnstable Police and Hyannis Firefighters rushed to a fiery crash scene on Smith Street near Circle Drive (on the way toward Craigville Beach).  Some type of SUV appears to have left the roadway and snapped a utility pole… bringing down live wires dangerously close to the ground.  The four occupants managed to escape just prior to the vehicle bursting into flames.  All four were transported to Cape Cod Hospital.  One of the patients needed to be removed from the hazardous scene on a stretcher.  The other three occupants were able to carefully walk out on their own. As you will see in the following HN footage, Hyannis Firefighters arrived and immediately began battling the flames… as EMTS located and evaluated the victims. The Barnstable Police Department is actively investigating the cause of the violent crash.  HN will provide updates as they become available.  [DEVELOPING] [HN VIDEO –  PRESS PLAY]
