YPD/Suicide Attempt
9/14/18
Yarmouth Police responded to a report of a single vehicle crash on Marigold Road in West Yarmouth just before noon on Wednesday.
At the scene officers found a vehicle crashed into a tree with severe damage...........the driver reportedly had crawled away from the accident into a nearby home.
She told first responders that she is a recovering addict who had “fallen off the wagon” and smoked crack cocaine earlier in the day and driven into the tree to kill herself.
The vehicle was towed from the scene and an immediate threat report was sent to the Registry of Motor Vehicles to suspend the victim’s driver’s license.
The YPD wants to remind everyone to call 9-1-1 if you or a loved one needs any kind of help anytime, 24 hours a day – 7 days a week.
