Lynn Police Lt. Chris- topher Kelly said the car struck a pile of snow, a light pole and a guard rail at 7:39 p.m. in front of 1069 Western Ave. before rolling over. The occupants were trapped in the vehicle. They were removed and taken to Massachusetts General Hospital. The driver has life-threatening injuries while the passenger was seriously hurt, police said. It’s unclear what caused the accident. In a separate case, Bos- ton Police said a 32-year- old Lynn man has been charged with vehicular ho- micide a week after a dead- ly crash in Jamaica Plain. Police said Joseph Kayo- de was driving under the influence of alcohol when he crashed near the inter- section of Columbus Ave- nue and Heath Street. Emanuel Cabral, 56, was pronounced dead on scene when officers found the wreck shortly at 4:49 a.m. on Friday, Dec. 22. Kayode is scheduled to be arraigned Friday in Roxbury District Court.

By Steve Krause ITEM SPORTS EDITOR LYNN — Winning the Walter J. Boverini girls basketball tournament never gets old for St. Mary’s coach Jeff Newhall. On the other hand, the title eluded Classical boys coach Jasper Grassa when he played, and then when he came back home to coach with his father after his stellar basketball ca- reer at Bentley University. Today, Grassa has final- ly a Boverini title and Ne- whall has his fourth in a row. The Rams won the boys title Friday in their own gym, downing the Spar- tans 49-44 while the St. Mary’s girls defeated Classical in the nightcap, 57-39. “I never won one of these when I played here,” said Grassa. “When I was in college, I believe we may have won a couple, but not while I played.” Even though both teams played flypaper defense during the game, Classi- cal finally put some dis- tance between itself and the Spartans late in the ITEM PHOTO | KATIE MORRISON first half and led by nine, ITEM PHOTO | KATIE MORRISON 24-15, at the break.
