SALISBURY - A car careened off Main Street and into a tree near Bartlett's Farm yesterday, sending a 40-year-old mother to the hospital with serious injuries. A quick-thinking passer-by rescued her 8-year-old son. Amesbury resident Kellie Quinn was driving eastbound on Main Street around 5 p.m. when she saw a Chevrolet Caprice swerve into the driveway in front of 92 Main St. The car didn't slow, Quinn said, and plowed over a chain-link fence and into a tree. "It came through the gate and kept on going," Quinn said. "There were no skid marks or anything." Quinn turned around to help the occupants, and found the driver trapped in the wreckage and her young son in the backseat. Quinn said she smelled gas fumes, so she pulled the boy out a rear window and led him a short distance away from the crash. The boy seemed all right, she said, and kept asking about his mother. Groveland resident Shawn Procurot was also driving by the scene and pulled over to help. A first responder for the Groveland Fire Department, Procurot saw he could not get the driver out of the car by himself, so he stayed with her to try to keep her calm. "I explained what was going on, what the various noises were," Procurot said. Emergency responders did not get to the scene for about five minutes, Quinn said, and their first hydraulic tools did not work, according to transmissions over the police radio. Once a working hydraulic tool was found, firefighters and EMTs slowly extricated the woman from the car. Emergency responders had hoped to bring in a LifeFlight helicopter, but none was immediately available. The woman was conscious when she was taken out of the car and suffered from multiple traumas, firefighters said. Both she and her son were taken to Anna Jaques Hospital. Neither police nor firefighters would identify the victims. Quinn said she had no choice in pulling over to help. "I don't think anyone could have kept driving," she said. "If I kept on going, I wouldn't feel good about myself."
