NEW: Driver crashes into office building in Courthouse

A man crashed his Subaru into a Courthouse office building this afternoon.

The crash happened around 4 p.m. at the National Science Teaching Association building at 1840 Wilson Blvd, in the alley between Wilson and Clarendon boulevards.

The front of the Subaru went through a brick wall and into the building, but no one inside the building was reported to be hurt.

The middle-aged male driver of the car appeared disoriented as he was being pulled out of the driver’s seat by firefighters. He was taken on a stretcher to a waiting ambulance and on to a local hospital.

It’s unclear what caused the crash and whether the driver might have suffered a medical emergency.

The fire department’s technical rescue team remains on scene, shoring up the brick wall which was damaged as a result of the crash.
