WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — No injuries were reported Wednesday after a car drove into a house at 1033 Simonds Road (Route 7).
Williamstown Police and Fire and Northern Berkshire EMS were at the scene at about 2 p.m. on Wednesday cleaning up and waiting for a wrecker to remove the vehicle.
The lone occupant of the car, the driver, had been evaluated and refused transport to the hospital, officials said.
Wednesday's rain may have contributed to the accident.
Tire tracks were visible on the property to the south leading up to the car, a light gray sedan that hit the structure directly below a "No Trespassing" sign.
Williamstown Police are investigating the accident and the building inspector was called to the scene to inspect the property.

District Meeting, Fire Station Open House on Tap in Williamstown
By Stephen DravisiBerkshires Staff
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — A busy week for the town's Fire Department gets underway on Tuesday evening.
The annual Fire District elections and district meeting are scheduled for that night in the Williamstown Elementary School gymnasium.
The week will wrap up with a dedication and open house at the district's new fire station on Main Street.
Polls for the election are scheduled to open at 4 p.m. and will be closed at 7 to allow for returns to be counted prior to the start of the annual meeting at 7:30.
There are two positions on the ballot this spring: a three-year term on the Prudential Committee and a three-year term for moderator.
Incumbent Moderator Paul Harsch is the only person running for his position. Michael Noyes is the lone candidate for the Prudential Committee seat currently held by longtime member John Notsley.
The Prudential Committee, analogous to the Select Board at town hall, manages the fire service and supervises its one full-time employee, the fire chief.
