SOUTH YARMOUTH — A man suffered possible life-threatening injuries Friday morning when the dump truck he was driving went off a Route 6 overpass and landed on the railroad tracks below.
State police said the truck was reported stolen by a local pool company. Police said the 36-year-old West Yarmouth man who was driving the vehicle likely faces theft and traffic-related charges.
At about 6 a.m., rescuers responded to the area near Exit 8 on the westbound side of the highway after the medium-sized truck belonging to the pool company crashed, Yarmouth fire Chief Philip Simonian said.
The remote location of the crash made getting to the truck difficult.
