On Friday night, March 14, 2025, a 15 year old boy in Innis Arden, driving without a license, put this SUV through a hedge.

The vehicle was stopped from flipping by a ~30 year old maple which will likely have to be replaced. 

Getting the vehicle out dislodged two 4-man boulders from the rockery and destroyed plants in the path.

Shoreline Fire responded.

‘Joyrider’ sounds like fun. This was not. Perhaps a different word like, hmm…thief or delinquent?

More important that the kids are ok instead of worrying about your bushes or trees.

Wow, worried more about trees/shrubs/boulders than the safety of the kids. Ridiculous! Teens will make bad decisions, not all bad decisions come from bad kids/bad parents. Wish this article had more compassion for the teens involved and their safely than the landscaping.

I know this family. They are lovely and amazing people. This was a kid that made a mistake. And yep- the worst of it is some property damage. Glad all are ok.
