Maynard Man Charged With OUI After Crashing Jeep Into TGI Friday's

Framingham Police arrested a Maynard Man after he backed his Jeep into the TGI Friday’s front door early Wednesday morning at Shoppers World.

Christopher C. Snell, 36, of Parker Street in Maynard was charged operating a vehicle under the influence of liquor (second offense), operating a vehicle under the influence of liquor causing serious bodily injury and driving to endanger, said Framingham Police Lt. Stephen Cronin.

Two women were injured in the crash. One woman, in her 30s, appeared to suffer a broken arm and was transported to MetroWest Medical Center in Framingham. The other woman suffered head injuries and was transported to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston.

The Shoppers World restaurant suffered heavy damage to its front door and glass shattered everywhere.

Snell was arraigned in district court in Framingham on Wednesday. He refused to take a breathalyzer test at the scene, so his license has been revoked for 180 days.

According to patrons of the restaurant, Snell and the two women had been drinking inside TGI Friday’s before the crash.
