Alleged DUI driver crashes into Orange County garage

An allegedly intoxicated driver slammed his BMW into the garage of an Orange County home early Monday morning, smashing into the resident’s Mercedes-Benz in the process.

At about 1:50 a.m., the driver, only identified as a man, struck the garage door of a home in the 8000 block of Winterwood Avenue in Stanton, according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department.

“There’s some damage to the garage and we have a building official coming out to investigate,” said Capt. Jonathan Pahissa of the Orange County Fire Authority.

The BMW also apparently damaged a Toyota Camry parked nearby.

The driver sustained minor injuries and was taken to a local hospital to be treated. He was also arrested for alleged DUI.

No other injuries were reported.
