A car crashed into an Aspen Dental office along Highway 51 in Millington around noon Thursday, coming to a stop at the reception desk right inside the front door. Remarkably, the driver and everyone inside the building walked away without injury.
Millington police say the vehicle ended up at the reception desk after the crash, according to Action News 5. The driver was uninjured, and no one inside the building was hurt either, the station reports.
Where It Happened
The crash unfolded at the Aspen Dental location on US Highway 51 North, which sits in Suite 103 near Chili's, according to the practice's own listing on Aspen Dental's website. The office address is 8544 US Highway 51 N, a stretch of road lined with retail and restaurants in Millington.
Details beyond the basic sequence of events remain scarce. It is not yet known what led to the crash, and no information has been released about the driver's identity, the vehicle involved, or whether any citations followed. The extent of damage to the dental office has also not been disclosed.
