Truck crashes through telephone pole, into Fall River business, nearly hitting pedestrian, injuring one
Some damage was done to a Fall River business Wednesday morning after a crash.
Shortly before 7:00 a.m., a call came into dispatch for a vehicle into a pole at South Main Street near State Avenue which is near the Fall River and Tiverton border.
Upon arrival, responders found a truck into Southend Barbershop at 2641 South Main Street with half of a telephone pole on top of the hood.
According to Captain Jay Huard, the operator, 28-year-old Timothy Faria, was operating a 1996 GMC Sierra. The truck swerved off the road and nearly struck a jogger who was on the sidewalk.

Verizon, Comcast, and National Grid were called for the downed wires. A building inspector was also called to the scene due to the building being struck.
The road was also closed for some time while repair work was completed.
Faria is being summoned to court for negligent operation of a motor vehicle and marked lanes violation.

This piece of s*** Timmothy Faria has been scamming people on Facebook. He’s a lying no good piece of s*** that needs to hang off a rope the f****** b****** seeks out people who are posting looking for motorcycle parts and pretends to fulfill their needs by acting he has a warehouse of motorcycles and has endless parts. Promises to deliver the parts to the victim upon receiving there payment then never sends the parts. I am one of his victims costing me over 500.00 I’d love to see this b**** hang from a rope by his neck. Not cause of the money but for the deception. You f*** me like that and I’ll kill you and if I could get my hands on Timmothy Faria, I’d kill him, so the law needs to screw this b****** to the wall so he doesn’t die or hurt no one else.
