Emergency crews were at Charlton Ave. and Queen St. after reports of at least one car into a house – Spectator file photo


No one was injured in a two-vehicle crash on Charlton Avenue West where cars ended up on the lawn of a home at Queen Street South.

The crash around 7:49 a.m. on Wednesday temporarily closed Charlton in the area, causing traffic to back up the Queen Street Hill, said Const. Lorraine Edwards.

It initially appeared one of the vehicles crashed into the house, but there does not appear to be structural damage to the home, she said. The drivers of both vehicles declined medical care.

The crash appears to have happened when a southbound vehicle drove through the intersection, striking a westbound vehicle on Charlton.
