20 Car Crash Shuts Down 128 In Weston

WESTON (WBZ) ― The winter weather and cold temperatures are being blamed for a string of accidents on Route 128 South in Weston Tuesday night.

Police had to close the highway down for a short time after as many as 20 cars skidded off the road because of the black ice.

A tractor trailer also jackknifed in the area because of the slippery conditions.

Luckily no one was hurt in the accidents.

Slippery conditions may have also played a part in a hit and run accident in Dorchester Tuesday night.

Witnesses say the driver of an SUV took off after hitting an ambulance.

An E.M.T. hurt her knee in the accident; the patient in the back of the ambulance was not hurt.
