UPDATE: Three people killed in crash at auto auction in Billerica, Mass., officials say, adding that the driver worked for the auction company.
12 others were injured in a car crash at an auto auction in Billerica, Massachusetts, the Middlesex County District Attorney's office said.
A witness said a jeep hit people standing inside the auction while vehicles were lining up and then crashed through the wall of the building, ABC affiliate WCVB in Boston reported.
“I heard a screeching of tires, and, I believe, a Jeep Cherokee went flying by me. In avoiding the cars, whoever was driving this vehicle hit several people,” said Woody Tuttle, an auto auction employee who witnessed the crash, according to WCVB.
Billerica is located about 24 miles northwest of Boston.
