The opening of Pathway to Recovery, an addiction treatment center in Taunton, Mass., was forced to be pushed back after a truck crashed into its waiting room right before opening day, according to an Aug. 17 report from Taunton Daily Gazette.
The drug and alcohol treatment center was scheduled to open on Aug. 14. However, a 22-year-old man crashed into three cars and went about four feet into the center's waiting room on Aug. 13 around 2:06 a.m.
The driver left the scene on foot and was allegedly "impaired" but uninjured. He has been charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, reckless operation of a motor vehicle, leaving the scene of property damage and speeding, according to the report.
In the meantime, Pathway to Recovery will offer telehealth appointments while staff members search for a temporary physical location. Once the center can reopen, it will offer individual and group therapy counseling tailored to each patient's needs, according to the report.
