Police: Drunk driver crashes through three fences, damages church grounds

BONNEAU, SC (WCSC) -

Police say a Moncks Corner man crashed through three fences and damaged church grounds in Bonneau, and now Bonneau's police chief is calling for safety improvements on that stretch of road.

When he bought his home a few months ago, Steven Fort had no idea he would be dealing with fixing fences.

Police say Fort's house is located right around a curve that speeding cars can't handle.

Two weekends ago someone drove into one of his fences. A tree stump stopped the car from going through it.

Early Sunday morning, while Fort was out at Bonneau Beach it happened again. This time, the car plowed through it.

"I'm telling you, I couldn't believe it when I walked out here and I was amazed. This can't be again and then realized he went all the way through the yard and I was really blown away, Fort said.

Police say the driver, 38-year-old Kevin Davis was driving drunk and kept on going.

Cops say Davis plowed through a chain link fence and a third fence on Fort's property, then crossed the road and did damage to some church grounds.

Bonneau's police chief says it could have been worse.
