A man will appear in Court after allegedly driving his car into three vehicles before crashing into a house in Hillpark last night.
At around 10pm, emergency services were called following a report a vehicle had collided with a house and into a child¡¯s bedroom on Pantera Way.
Counties Manukau Central Area Prevention Manager, Inspector Mark Chivers, says it was extremely lucky there were no injuries.
¡°It was incredibly fortunate no one was seriously injured, however there¡¯s been extensive damage caused to the property and the other vehicles.¡±
Inspector Chivers says the advice to anyone who is in any doubt about whether they¡¯re safe or legal to drive after drinking is simple ¨C don¡¯t do it.
¡°People who drive while impaired by alcohol are putting themselves at risk, as well as everyone else on the road.
¡°This whole situation could have been avoided if the driver had made a different decision.¡±
A 36-year-old man will appear in Manukau District Court on 8 October charged with driving with excess breath alcohol.
