(WHDH) — Boston Mayor Michelle Wu was a passenger in a cruiser that was involved in a car crash in Hyde Park on Tuesday that left a woman and a child hospitalized.
Witnesses shared photos of the mayor as she checked on a woman and child as they were getting into a waiting ambulance. Video taken by someone who passed by shortly after the crash occurred showed a black SUV up against a black sedan. Witnesses said it took some time to get Wu’s door open.
In a statement, Wu’s Office said, “We can confirm the mayor was a passenger in a vehicular crash earlier today. Thankfully no one sustained any major injuries. The Boston Police Department will conduct an investigation of the incident as they do with all crashes involving departmental motor vehicles.”
No additional information was immediately available.
