Suspected Drunk Driver Strikes 6 Cars, Leaves Path Of Destruction

Police said they believe a suspected drunk driver is responsible for a multi-vehicle crash that left a path of destruction.

Before Langhorne Borough police could make it to the scene of crash on S. Bellvue Avenue near the Middletown Country Club where it was reported a car struck a wrought iron fence, they were again dispatched to multi-car crash in Middletown.

Along with police, the Penndel-Middletown rescue squad and the Langhorne Fire Company also responded to the scene in the 100 block of Golf View Drive in Middletown on Wednesday afternoon.

After following gouge marks and debris left along the path, police said a resident of Golf View Drive hit at least three more cars, before he slammed into two parked cars, both owned by the same Golf View Drive resident.

Witnesses said the driver of the striking vehicle, who was attended to by a Langhorne police officer, appeared to be dazed and confused. The identity of the driver was not immediately available.

The driver was transported to St. Mary's Hospital and listed in serious condition after sustaining head injuries.

Police said charges are pending toxicology results.
