Winthrop resident calls for drivers to slow down after car careens into fence

One Winthrop resident is ordering drivers to slow down after someone crashed into a fence.

Paul Turner told Boston 25 that people frequently walk their dogs on this sidewalk and if someone was in the wrong place and wrong time Sunday afternoon, they would have gotten hit.

“It’s frustrating you know the fence is all the way from that end to that end with damage, pushed it all down,” said Turner.

Turner said it’s the second time his fence has been hit. If the fence wasn’t up, he fears the situation would have been worse for him….

“It would have went through the porch probably.”

Turner told Boston 25 he hopes police catch whoever did this to his fence. He also hopes his insurance covers the damage.
