GLOCESTER -- One teenage boy has been airlifted to the UMass Memorial Medical Center and two others are being treated at Hasbro Children's Hospital following a car crash this afternoon.

Police have not released the names of the teens, all males either 16 or 17 years old. Nor would they confirm whether they were students at the nearby Ponaganset High School.

Their car was travelling east on Chestnut Hill Road when the driver lost control and hit a tree at about 2 p.m., around the same time school let out.
