A car has been left buried deep inside a Wellington retirement home and a worker has been seriously injured thanks to an out-of-control car. The crash at Village at the Park, on Rintoul St in the suburb of Berhampore, happened at 1.25pm on Thursday. Tristan Saunders, from the retirement home, said a worker in the laundry was pinned between the car and debris. She suffered two ankle fractures as well as lower leg and head bruises. The driver of the crashed car was the wife of a resident who she had been visiting, Saunders said. After a 20 metre run-up, her car ended up “ploughing straight through into the laundry where one of our staff members was working”. He believed the driver may have suffered a medical problem, which led to to the out-of-control car. The car went through a window and hallway before coming to rest buried about three metres into the laundry building at the southwest end of the park. Wellington Free Ambulance confirmed a patient was taken to Wellington Hospital with a serious ankle injury. A hospital spokeswoman said the woman remained in a serious condition shortly before 4pm on Thursday. Bill McDonald, chief executive of Arvida Group, which owns Village at the Park, confirmed it was a staff member who was working in the laundry that was injured. Police’s serious crash unit would investigate.
