BOSTON - One man was killed and another hurt when a car hit them and the front of a home in Roslindale Sunday afternoon.

It happened around 5 p.m. outside a house on Washington Street.

The circumstances are still not clear, but a spokesperson for the Suffolk District Attorney's Office told WBZ-TV the two victims were men in their 60's and were not in the car at the time of the crash.

The car ended up in front of a porch of a triple decker house.

The names of the victims and the driver have not been released yet.

Police were at the scene for hours after the crash and sealed off several parts of the street. Some neighbors were forced to wait behind caution tape for police to escort them home.

"They told me just to walk around the block. Again, I'm still reeling that that's because someone died," a woman named Beck told reporters.

No other information is available at this point in the investigation.
