Car crashes into Halesowen building

A car crashed into a building on Mucklow Hill in Halesowen this morning meaning delays for rush hour traffic.

A man in his late 50s was driving the car when it crashed into Solutions IT near the bottom of the hill at around 8.50am this morning.

Emergency services and structural engineers from Dudley Council attended the scene, with the man believed to have been taken to hospital and the building being declared structurally safe.

A spokesman for West Midlands Fire Service said: "The incident involved one car that was in collision with a two-storey building used as an office.

"A man in his late 50s was driving the car and managed to get out before emergency services arrived.

"He is believed to have been taken to Russells Hall Hospital (after) a member of the public provided initial first aid.

"The building did not need to be evacuated and the vehicle was recovered by police who were also in attendance."
