CANTON, Mass. — A person has suffered life-threatening injuries after being struck by a vehicle in Canton, Interim Police Chief Joseph Perkins and Fire Chief Wendell Robery say.
The incident occurred around 6:55 p.m., when Canton police and fire were dispatched to the intersection of Randolph Street and Wentworth Road to reports of a pedestrian struck by a sedan.
Once on the scene, crews found a man in the roadway suffering from serious and traumatic injuries. He was transported to a Boston area hospital with serious, life-threatening injuries. Randolph Street does have sidewalks, but it is unclear at this time if the victim was walking on the sidewalk.
