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.
