A family of four was displaced early Thursday after a car crashed into their Woodmere home, making it unlivable, Nassau police said.
Around 1:48 a.m., an 18-year-old driver was driving a 2022 Kia when he lost control at the intersection of Ocean Avenue and East Broadway, striking a house on East Broadway. The family was not injured, police said.
The Town of Hempstead determined the house was uninhabitable after the collision.
The driver of the Kia was evaluated at the scene for minor injuries by a Nassau County medic. The Woodmere Fire Department, PSEG and multiple other departments also responded to the scene.
No criminality is suspected but an investigation is ongoing, police said.
