Distracted driver crashes car into Quincy home






QUINCY POLICE DEPARTMENT
A car crashed into a home in Quincy Tuesday morning. No one was injured, but the driver was arrested for distracted driving.

Distracted driving caused a motorist to crash through a fence and into the side of a home in Quincy Tuesday morning, police said.
The vehicle hit the side of the home at 16/18 Quarry St. around 10 a.m., police said in statements posted to their Facebook and Twitter pages.
Photos show a small white car pressed against the facade of the house and a white fence shattered in the yard.
“Distracted driving caused this crash,” police said.


Helicopters were circling the scene, according to a Quincy Fire Department dispatcher, but no one was injured in the incident.
Police temporarily closed Quarry Street from Garfield Street to Smith Street, but the road was reopened around 11:20 a.m.
The driver was arrested and charged with several motor vehicle infractions, police said.
