DANBURY — A car leaving an auto body shop crashed against a gate in a busy Danbury intersection late Friday morning.
The driver, Danbury resident Manuel Panora, said the brakes of his Honda Accord did not work after he left Techno Motors, 68 Elm St., and the car crashed against the gate at Igreja Pentecostal Filadélfia Assembly of God, 45 New St.
Metal pieces of the gate were thrown at several cars parked in the church’s parking lot but no one appeared to be injured, including Panora.
Clara Lopes, who was inside the church during the crash, came outside to find the rear window of her car completely shattered by a piece of the gate.
More details as they become available.
