Emergency crews responding to a report of a vehicle into a building at 94 Derby Street found a gaping hole in the glass facade of the store and a black car that had come to a stop on the sales floor.
The Hanover Fire Department said that a Plymouth County Tech Rescue Team was activated to assist people who were either injured or trapped. Multiple crews from the Rockland Fire Department were also called in to assist.
Photos showed firefighters tending to what appeared to be a shopper under the vehicle in question. The area has been roped off with yellow police tape.
“It sounded like a bomb went off,” one witness said. “We saw several people who should have sought medical attention but they wouldn’t go over because they knew other people were critical.”
There was no immediate word on the condition of those who were hurt. The cause of the crash wasn’t immediately clear.
In a statement, a spokeswoman for South Shore Hospital said, “We were told to expect patients. No numbers at this time. They are in the process of arriving.”
The Apple Store is part of the Derby Street Shops. It’s neighbored by a Burton’s Grill and Brandy Melville.
No additional details were available.
