WESTFIELD – A Ludlow woman is believed to have fallen asleep at the wheel and drove through the front wall of the Four-Mile Country Store on Russell Road, Sunday.
The accident happened at about 6:45 p.m. when Tina Richard, 42, lost control of her car and drove through the store. Her 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee ended up entirely in the store, causing more than $10,000 in damages to the building and inventory, said Police Sgt. Raymond P. Manos.
Richard was taken to Nobel Hospital by ambulance and treated and released. The store had closed at 5 p.m. so no one else was injured, Manos said.
No citations have been issued but police are continuing to investigate.
