NORFOLK, MASS. (WHDH) - A box truck ended up dangling over the edge of a wall at a gas station in Norfolk after a crash Wednesday afternoon.
The crash happened around 1:45 p.m. at Daley Service Center on Rockwood Road, local police and fire officials said in a joint statement.
SKY7-HD was over the scene around 4 p.m., where the truck was seen alongside a car and a pickup truck that both also appeared to be involved.
A crane was in place and the truck had been pulled away from the wall moments later.
The scene was taped off. Debris were also visible on the gas station premises and on a nearby street.
Officials, citing an initial investigation, said the truck struck a traffic island before entering the gas station. Officials said the truck then hit a gas pump, two other vehicles and an aerial lift. The truck then crashed through a fence and came to a stop partially hanging over the edge of the wall, officials said.
Natick firefighter Scott Smith told 7NEWS he was driving by the crash scene Wednesday and immediately alerted firefighters at a nearby fire station after he saw what happened.
“I saw the truck go through the gas pump, stop for a second and then he kind of sped up again and it went flying through a couple parked vehicles almost all the way over the ledge,” Smith said.
Smith said he saw firefighters respond quickly to rescue the truck’s driver.
The truck ripped the pump out of the ground, dragging it a short distance before crashing into the fence and other vehicles.
Crews later towed away one of the vehicles with its passenger side smashed by the box truck.
Speaking Wednesday afternoon, witnesses said they were happy no one was inside the cars or pumping gas at the time of the crash.
“We were all in so much shock and just hoping everyone was okay considering there was gas and everything going on,” one person said.
“It’s pretty incredible, considering the size of the truck going through the gas pump at the speed that he was actually going, that no one got hurt or killed,” Smith said.
The cause of the crash remained under investigation as of Wednesday afternoon.
