ROCKLAND —

A man was injured when his vehicle crashed through a backyard fence and into a garage.

The man, whose name was not released, was taken to South Shore Hospital in Weymouth with head injuries, Rockland Fire Capt. Scott Duffey said.

Duffey said that the accident happened at about 9:42 p.m. Wednesday in the back yard of 28 Pacific St.

The garage collapsed on the vehicle and firefighters had to crawl into the wreckage to pull the man out through the driver side door.

Duffey said that the man was driving a Jeep SUV on Webster Street when the vehicle crossed Union Street, went through a parking lot, through a fence and crashed into the back side of a one-car detached garage next to a podiatrist’s office.

The man was conscious when rescue workers reached him, Duffey said.
