Miss Catherine Feeney of Woburn and Walter M. Simpson of Jamaica Plain were seriously hurt, with four other men and women treated for cuts, bruises, and shock. The incident involved drivers Biagio Scalia of Dorchester and James Dempster of South Boston, as a second truck attempted to yield to the passing vehicle. The library bureau coupe had been left at the curb and tagged for a traffic violation an hour earlier.
