DORCHESTER, MASS. (WHDH) - Five people were sent to the hospital late Wednesday night after a three-car crash involving an unmarked Boston police cruiser in Dorchester.

Another SUV was also hit.
A police report said two police officers were among the five people who went to the hospital.
Each of the three cars sustained damage, with police describing significant damage on the cruiser’s front bumper and driver-side door.
