Hawthorne NJ, the driver and one (1) passenger of a Volkswagen Passat were transported to an area hospital following a Thursday afternoon, 12/03 crash in the 600 block of Goffle Hill Road, Hawthorne, in which the Passat crashed through an outer wall of a single family home and wound up in the basement garage. Hawthorne Fire was assisted by Wyckoff Fire at the scene. Hawthorne Police, Hawthorne EMS, and Wyckoff Police also responded.
Hawthorne fire department along with a Wyckoff Rescue and Paterson Rescue are operating on a vehicle into a house on Goffle Hill Rd. On arrival, Chief Speranza had 2 parties entrapped in the vehicle that went through the wall and into the basement of the home. Parties were removed and taken to the hospital. No additional information is available right now.
And a reminder, from December 4 to January 1, the Hawthorne Police will be participating in the 2020 Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over Campaign. We will be aggressively enforcing laws to prevent and punish those who drive vehicles while impaired by drugs or alcohol. In the last 5 years, NJ has had over 35,000 drug and alcohol related accidents resulting in 648 fatalities. This is unacceptable. Use your head. Get a ride, use Uber or Lyft, look out for your friends. Let’s work to end this deadly situation
WTF how does one do that? Car is not just embedded in the wall, it is in the basement.
The driver had a medical issue.
