PROVIDENCE – A man has been freed from his car after crashing it into a security booth at Rhode Island Hospital this morning, and he is now being treated inside the hospital.

Emergency crews were called to the scene, at 593 Eddy St., around 7:34 a.m., according to James Taylor, chief of communications for the Providence Fire Department. The man had been freed by 8:20 a.m., and there was no visible sign of a crash at that time.

No one was in the booth when it was struck, Taylor said.
