According to Nj.com, a 43-year-old man veered off Route 513 at a curve and slammed into the stone house at about 6:50 p.m. The Totowa man in a Nissan Maxima hit a utility pole before barreling into the structure.
The driver was the only occupant of the vehicle at the time of the crash. He was pronounced dead at the scene. There were two people inside the home but they were not injured by the incident.
An autopsy is expected to be performed on the victim. The on-going investigation is also awaiting the results of a toxicology test.
This not the first time a car has crashed into the building but the residence said that is the first time the house has sustained damage.
