A Tesla vehicle crashed into the front of a house in Atherton, Wigan, late on Thursday night, causing significant damage to the property. Emergency services were called to Bag Lane near the junction with Mealhouse Lane at 11:23pm on June 4.
Two fire engines from Atherton, Hindley, and Leigh fire stations attended the scene, along with police and paramedics. Firefighters used breathing apparatus, a hose reel, covering jets, and battery-operated cutting equipment to mitigate fire risk and make the area safe.
Greater Manchester Police confirmed that a woman sustained minor injuries. Two people were treated at the scene by paramedics from North West Ambulance Service before being taken to hospital.
The crash caused the front door of the property to come off, dislodged bricks above the doorway, and left debris on the pavement. The window was boarded up, and the pavement was blocked off. A police car remained at the scene on Friday morning.
A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service said: 'Shortly after 11:23pm yesterday evening, two fire engines and an enhanced rescue unit were called to reports of a road traffic collision involving an electric car and a house. Crews arrived quickly and worked with GMP to make the area safe. Firefighters were in attendance for around two hours.'
