One dead after car slams into Apple store

NEW YORK, United States (AFP) — An SUV crashed into an Apple store in a Boston suburb on Monday, killing one person and injuring 16 others in an “unthinkable” incident, officials said.

The car struck “multiple” people after smashing through the glass facade of the store in the town of Hingham, Massachusetts, Plymouth County District Attorney Tim Cruz said.

The prosecutor did not say whether the incident was an accident or intentional, simply noting: “This investigation is active and ongoing. We are very limited as to what we can say at this point.”

Footage aired by the local ABC affiliate showed several people being taken out of the store on stretchers.

A large hole in the facade could be seen with the dark-colored SUV inside the building.
