RAYNHAM — The Raynham Police and Fire Departments responded Tuesday afternoon after a vehicle crashed into a house.

At just before 1:00 p.m., the Raynham Police and Fire Departments responded to a 911 call reporting that a vehicle crashed into a home at 1577 Broadway.

When first responders arrived, they located a sedan had crashed into the lower brick portion of the home, causing significant damage.

The preliminary investigation indicates that an elderly male driver from Rhode Island suffered an apparent medical episode before leaving the roadway, crossing the lawn and striking the home.

The driver suffered injuries that appear to be non-life-threatening and was taken by a Raynham Fire ambulance to Boston Medical Center – South in Brockton.

The home was occupied at the time of the crash, but no residents were injured as a result of the crash.

The Raynham Building Department responded to assess the home for structural damage, and Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant also responded to the scene.

The crash remains under investigation by the Raynham Police Department.
