Driver allegedly crashes into 2 people in driveway, sending man to hospital

by | Apr 22, 2025 | Featured: News, News, Police & Fire

The Hopkinton Police Department responded to two odd incidents over the holiday weekend involving motor vehicles, according to the police log.

On April 18, an unnamed man was found unconscious in a vehicle in a South Street parking lot by HPD officers at 12:28 p.m. He was unresponsive, and officers were unable to wake him up. The Hopkinton Fire Department was called in to assist. The man later regained consciousness.

An open bottle was found in the vehicle, leading officers to suspect that the man was intoxicated.

In an email to the Independent on Tuesday afternoon, Lt. Aaron O’Neil stated that the man was charged with operating a motor vehicle with a suspended license, possession of an open container of alcohol in the motor vehicle, operating a motor vehicle under the influence and refusing to identify himself.

“Due to his level of intoxication, he was transported to Milford Hospital, and the vehicle was towed,” stated O’Neil. “He was not arrested but will be summoned for the charges listed above.”

On April 19, four officers responded to an emergency call to an Exchange Street home. The caller stated that “her sister pulled into the driveway, striking some trash barrels and two people in the driveway.” the Hopkinton Fire Department assisted, transporting one victim to the hospital.

The police log indicated that one person struck was a male in his 70s. The second was an 88-year-old female. Neither person was identified.

The vehicle also struck the garage, according to O’Neil. The building inspector was called to the home to oversee “shoring up the building,” the police log stated.

Stated O’Neil: “Concerning the April 19 crash, two people were injured, but only one was transported to the hospital.”

O’Neil did not identify which person was taken to the hospital. He added that the unnamed driver was not injured.
