Officials say that 4 people were ejected from a vehicle Monday after it went airborne and caught on fire on a Massachusetts expressway.

Engine 5, Ladder 2, and Rescue 1 of the Quincy Fire Department responded to the Expressway southbound earlier this morning at the Furnace Brook Parkway exit for a roll-over with ejections with the car on fire.

According to Quincy Police, preliminary investigation reveals the vehicle travelled down Ricciuti Drive, struck the curb, went airborne, and rolled several times.

Four individuals were ejected from the motor vehicle.

Two individuals were transported to South Shore Hospital. One is in stable condition and one has been discharged. Two individuals were transported to BMC with serious injuries.

Police stated that speed appears to be a factor.
