Two Cars Crash Into Front Of Jamaica Plain Bookstore

JAMAICA PLAIN, MA — Two people were injured when not one, but two cars crashed into the front of a popular Jamaica Plain bookstore on Wednesday.

Officers responded to a crash in front of Papercuts Bookshop on South Street around 11 a.m. to find two cars had crashed through the storefront.

Police say two people were injured but are expected to be okay. One of the drivers was taken to the hospital and the other one was not. The store - which opens at noon, had not yet opened at the time of the crash so no one was inside.

Glass, books and debris were scattered across South Street while emergency crews worked to board up the windows and move the cars from the store.

The cause of the crash is still under investigation, but WBZ-TV is reporting that one of the drivers said she had a green light and was driving down South Street when she was T-boned by the other car, sending them both into the store.

No other information was immediately available.
