NORTH ATTLEBORO, MA : Pickup crashes into bedroom of North Attleboro home, narrowly misses gas main on Friday, 27th December, 2019
North Attleboro, Massachusetts
A pickup truck went off the road and struck a house on Mount Hope Street Friday morning, ending up in a bedroom and nearly hitting the gas service to the house.
Fortunately, no one was in the bedroom at the time and two occupants in an adjacent room were not injured, police and fire officials said.
“There was nobody in the bedroom, thank God,” Fire Chief Christopher Coleman said, adding that the pickup’s front end was inside the room and about a foot from the gas main.“We got very, very lucky this morning,” the chief said.
The accident occurred about 7 a.m. in the area near John Rezza Drive.
The ranch-style house sustained significant damage to its side and the building inspector responded to the scene, Coleman said.
