A crash this afternoon near Ballston pulverized a bus shelter and littered a sidewalk with strewn trash.
The reported single-vehicle crash happened just before 1 p.m. Friday on the 3900 block of Wilson Blvd, at the entrance to the parking lot of the &pizza, Gold’s Gym and other businesses.
Initial reports suggest that the driver might have been suffering a medical emergency when she or he drove a Volvo station wagon into a pair of roadside waste receptacles and a glass-and-metal shelter that was instantly reduced to shards.
Police and medics quickly arrived on the scene and started tending to the driver, blocking an eastbound lane of Wilson Blvd in the process.
The driver’s condition was not immediately available. No other injuries were reported. It’s unclear how long it might take to replace the bus shelter.
