Tragedy Strikes: Vintage Car Crash climes lives of Boston Family

DORCHESTER – Boston Police are looking for the driver of a stolen car who hit and damaged more than a dozen vehicles Monday afternoon.

Dennis Harrington told WBZ-TV someone used a screwdriver to steal his prized 1987 Buick Grand National while he was at work, leading to the chaotic scene.

The unidentified thief then went on a wild joy ride, hitting 15-to-20 cars in Dorchester. It was later found abandoned on Leslie Street. The thief ran away.

Neighbor Damal Ray said he came outside after hearing a loud crash.

“He was coming down Ponzi Street and almost hit a couple of kids, and then swerved off,” Ray said.

“Wrecked my life”

Harrington said he had put about $150,000 into his car.

“He literally just wrecked my life by joyriding the car for no reason. It just makes me sick,” he told WBZ. “I was sick to my stomach because there’s no way I’m ever going to replace that. Insurance is never going to cover it. I’m sick to my stomach.”
