MELROSE, MA — A resident is uninjured after accidentally driving his vehicle over the sidewalk and onto his property Thursday evening, according to the police department.
Officers and McGarvey Towing responded to the scene on the corner of Glendower Road and Whitman Avenue at approximately 7 p.m. to find the red Nissan Sentra stuck up on a small incline, having crushed some of the plants and spread debris.
