GROVELAND, MASS. (WHDH) - Police are investigating a crash that sent a car into a home just feet from where a resident was sitting early Saturday morning in Groveland, officials said.

Emergency crews responding to a call for a car into a home just before 10 a.m. on School Street found a Ford Explorer had driven into the side of a home, causing significant damage, police said.

The driver, a 19-year-old from Haverhill, was extricated from the vehicle and taken to an area hospital for non-life-threatening injuries, according to police.

Resident Russ Tine was home at the time of the crash.

“I was sitting in the den, and I heard a pretty loud noise,” Tine said, who said he ran outside to check on the driver. “He was out of it, he was conscious but not alert.”

Tine was treated at the scene but declined to be taken to the hospital, police said. While the building was seriously damaged, it was safe for habitation, police said.
