STANDISH, Maine — Police say a man driving drunk while on probation has crashed a stolen car into a historic building in Standish.
The Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office says 39-year-old Abraham Gammon was behind the wheel of a vehicle reported stolen from Cape Elizabeth earlier in the day at about 10 p.m. Wednesday when he lost control and struck the Marrett House.
The building had “substantial damage,” according to police, while the vehicle was totaled.
Gammon was injured and taken to Maine Medical Center.
He faces charges including aggravated criminal mischief, operating under the influence and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.
The Marrett House dates to 1796, according to the Historic New England website.
A real bad day for Abraham. He now is facing a 100 dollar fine and 3 days of probation. :-(
I hear you………… Super Petey will come to his rescue when he gets done saving the whales from the propane tanks….
Ya mean the ones in Windham?
Such an effective probation program we have.
You hit the nail on thew head.
He will be required to jog through the court house on his to the next crime.
The Liberals insist we coddle and nurture these people. Seems to really work…….Not!!!!!!!
Would it not be better, instead of saying “Drunken Driver”, to say “Alcohol Indulged Operator”…?
