Stoughton Gas Station Crash Ignites Fire, Sends 3 to Hospital

Investigators say a three-vehicle collision sent one car over a curb into a pump at Cobb Corner.

Overview

  • The crash happened just before 6 a.m. on Sharon Street at the Season station near the Stoughton–Canton–Sharon junction.
  • Police say one vehicle left the roadway, struck a fuel pump and sparked a fire that triggered the station’s powder-based suppression system.
  • Five people were involved and three were transported to area hospitals with injuries not believed to be serious.
  • Surveillance footage shows the vehicle turning left and bouncing over landscaping before impact, and aerial video captured a damaged silver car being towed and a toppled pump.
  • Sharon Street was closed between Central Street and Bay Road for cleanup and has reopened as police continue their initial investigation using video and witness accounts.
