4 hurt as vehicle crashes through barn, fence

Investigators said the vehicle was travelling north on Spangler Road just north of Union Road, when the driver, identified as Mead, exited the right side of the road. After exiting the road, he drove through a chain-link fence before smashing into the barn, authorities said.

Mead fled the scene of the crash, according to investigators, but was later located in the 100 block of East Main Street in Medway. He was transported to the hospital to be checked out.

The crash remains under investigation and troopers suspect alcohol as playing a role.
