BOSTON — A cabdriver crashed into a rest area used by fellow cabbies near Boston’s Logan International Airport on Monday, sending 10 people to hospitals, the Massachusetts State Police said.

The authorities said that it appeared to be a “tragic accident” and that the driver — a 56-year-old man from Cambridge, Mass. — was cooperating with the police and was not facing criminal charges. An investigation was continuing.

“He is known to be a very nice gentleman from his peers, and we have no history of violations or anything on him,” Maj. Frank McGinn of the State Police said. He did not identify the driver.

One of the victims was in serious condition, and three others were in “less serious but significant” condition, Major McGinn said. The injured were taken to Massachusetts General Hospital, Tufts Medical Center and other hospitals. No one had life-threatening injuries, the police said late Monday.
