Vehicle crashes into living room of Market Drayton home
A vehicle severely damaged the living room of a home in Market Drayton this afternoon after crashing thorough the wall of the property.
Emergency services were called to the scene in London Road, Knighton at 2.30pm.
“It was lucky no one was in the living room”. These were the words of Paramedic Area Support Officer, Kevin Errington.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokeswoman said:
“When crews arrived they found a car which had crashed through the external wall of a cottage and was protruding into the living room.
“The occupants of the car, a husband and wife thought to be in their 60s, were out of the vehicle. An assessment by ambulance crews found they were miraculously unhurt though understandably shaken.”
The fire service removed the vehicle from the property and the police arranged for builders and a structural engineer to assess the damage.
