Authorities said that they received a call for a car stuck in between trees around 7:45 p.m. Thursday. When Longmeadow personnel arrived at the scene, they found that a motor vehicle had "struck a group of trees and became lodged approximately 10 feet in the air".
Two people were in the car at the time of the accident, said the Longmeadow Fire Department. First responders with the Longmeadow Fire Department, Longmeadow Police and East Longmeadow Fire Department assisted in removing them from the car.
