Boston driver “miraculously” escapes before car bursts into flames.
After weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic sucking up essentially all of the media oxygen of late and so choking local broadcast media from their usual focusing on car accidents and house fires, a twofer comes to the rescue for jonesing program directors.
Tuesday night in Dorchester a driver crashed his vehicle into a utility pole and so downed power lines then sparked a car fire.
Responding firefighters said that the driver “miraculously” escaped just before the car burst into flames as well as avoided electrocution from the downed power lines.
