CAMBRIDGE, MA — Two people suffered life-threatening injuries in the aftermath of a serious motor vehicle accident that took place early Monday morning, according to the Massachusetts State Police.
Troopers, Cambridge firefighters, and other first responders arrived on the scene shortly before 5 a.m. to the two-car crash on the corner of Alewife Brook Parkway and Matignon Road.
