A Framingham town employee is currently being held without bail after police say he tried to kill two children by crashing his car into a pole. Prosecutors say Peter Curtis, 32, of Medway, picked up his 10-year-old niece and 15-year-old nephew at their home on Monday to give them a ride to their mother’s workplace. According to the police report, Curtis, who works for the Framingham Parks and Recreation Department, warned the children just before he crashed. “Buckle up, we’re going on a death run,” prosecutors claim Curtis said.
