The inexperience of teen drivers can often create devastating injuries and losses for others. In a recent accident in Bristol Township, that is exactly what happened. Police say that a teen driver operating the vehicle just before midnight on a Monday evening crashed into a home.
The incident began when police received a phone call that teenagers were spotted entering parked vehicles along the 400 block of Stonybrook Drive in Levittown. When a police officer arrived at the scene, a teen attempted to flee in a stolen vehicle. That teen ended up crashing the vehicle into the home at that time. The home suffered what police describe as catastrophic damage from the crash. No one in the home, nor the teen driver, was hurt in the accident. Police took the teen into custody, though they did not state what charges would be applied.
