A driver is in critical condition after he crashed into a DeKalb County animal hospital early Wednesday morning, police said.
The single-vehicle wreck happened around 12:30 a.m. after the 46-year-old driver left the road, struck a tree and slammed into the Winters Chapel Animal Hospital along Peeler Road, Dunwoody police spokesman Sgt. Michael Cheek said. The driver sustained serious injuries and was taken to a hospital.
No animals were injured, according to Cheek. The hospital sustained significant damage, but Cheek said the impact does not appear to have affected the structural integrity of the building. It appears a gray tarp is covering the impacted area.
Police have not said what caused the crash or why the driver left the road. The crash remains under investigation.
