Teenager facing multiple charges after crashing into Massachusetts State Police Barracks
A Massachusetts teenager has been charged after reportedly crashing into a Massachusetts State Police Barracks.
According to Dave Procopio of Massachusetts State Police, just before 6:30 p.m. Saturday, an impaired teenage driver traveling southbound on Route 8 in Cheshire went off the road and struck the east front corner of the State Police-Cheshire Barracks.
The vehicle, a 2000 Nissan Altima, crashed through the building’s brick exterior wall and damaged a kitchen area.
The driver, a 17-year-old Pittsfield girl, and her female passenger, also 17 and of Pittsfield, were transported to Berkshire Medical Center for evaluation of potential minor injuries.
After being examined, the driver was brought back to the Cheshire Barracks and booked on charges of Operating Under the Influence of Liquor; Negligent Operation of a Motor Vehicle; Speeding; and Marked Lanes Violation. A bail clerk released her on $40 bail. She is scheduled to appear in Pittsfield District Court for arraignment on Tuesday.
No Troopers inside the barracks were injured. The State Police Facilities Section and a contractor responded and performed emergency repairs. Additional repairs will be required. Troopers were able to continue working in the building, which remains in operation.
