Overview
- Home surveillance video shows a white sedan hitting a speed bump at high speed around 7:30 a.m. Sunday on Glendale Street in Everett, going airborne and striking three homes.
- The Everett driver was thrown from the car, remained at the scene, told police the brakes failed, and was cited for operating to endanger.
- City inspections deemed parts of multiple homes unsafe, displacing more than 10 people, and power crews responded after an electrical meter was damaged.
- Police reports noted no evidence of impairment in the Everett driver, and firefighters nearby reported seeing a similar car traveling fast shortly before the crash.
- In a separate incident just after midnight in Braintree, a 63-year-old driver went off Washington Street into a yard and a boulder, was taken to a hospital for evaluation, found not impaired, and cited for motor-vehicle violations.
