Car Crashes into Garage

South Pierson Street building damage, but there were no injuries.

 

A driver who lost control of his car while exiting the parking lot of the Parkwood Diner on Wednesday afternoon, crashed into the garage of a house across the street. 

According to Lt. John Tutunjian, the driver experienced a mechanical problem with his car as he drove out of the parking lot, causing him to accelerate into a garage at 71 S. Pierson St. 

“The garage was severely damaged,” said Lt. Tutunjian. 

No one was injured in the accident and the driver refused medical attention.  

Later Wednesday afternoon, a construction crew was working on the garage, which appeared to be near collapse on one side.
