Mayor Michelle Wu was involved in a crash Tuesday while riding as a passenger in an unmarked Boston police cruiser, the mayor’s office confirmed.
No one was seriously injured and the police department is investigating the accident, Wu’s office said in a statement. Boston police declined to comment Tuesday, deferring to Wu’s office.
Photos and video of the crash show it happened at the intersection of Hyde Park Avenue and Blakemore Street in Roslindale.
Video of the incident appears to show that cars traveling on Hyde Park Avenue had their lights green when the police car enters the intersection from Blakemore Street with its emergency lights on.
The video shows a car traveling down Hyde Park Avenue stopping abruptly for the police car, but the car in an adjacent lane crashes its front end into the driver’s side of the police car.
No further information has been released about the accident.
