FedEx Truck Delivers Scare to Preschool

A FedEx truck crashed into a preschool building in north Arlington this afternoon.

The accident happened on the 5000 block of N. Little Falls Road, in the Rock Spring neighborhood. The truck driver somehow lost control, sideswiped a minivan, jumped the curb and ran head-first into the Rock Spring Cooperative Preschool.

The building was unoccupied at the time and no one — including the driver — was hurt, according to Arlington County Fire Department spokeswoman Lt. Sarah-Maria Marchegiani.

A building inspector has been called to the scene to inspect the damage to the structure.
