Two people were in the car at the time of the accident, said the Longmeadow Fire Department. First responders with the Longmeadow Fire Department, Longmeadow Police and East Longmeadow Fire Department assisted in removing them from the car.
Longmeadow Deputy Fire Chief John Rigney told USA TODAY that the driver was "extricated out the driver's door which was able to be opened and the rear passenger was extricated through the rear window using an A frame or step ladder".
