A Boston commuter train station remains closed “indefinitely” Monday after a car crashed into a barrier at the top of its parking lot, leaving the vehicle dangling over the edge.
Saturday’s crash at the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) Alewife station in Cambridge was “intentional,” police say, sending the 5-ton concrete barrier crashing through the roof of the transit center.
A 14-year-old girl suffered minor injuries after being struck by falling glass and debris inside the lobby, according to WFXT.
Photos taken from the scene show the front end of a white sedan leaning over the edge of the garage’s fifth story.
