No officers, staff members, or members of the public were injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shrewsbury police chief Kevin Anderson said officers on and off duty immediately rendered first aid. He said the incident appeared to be intentional but that police do not have a motive at this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chief said the vehicle drove through exterior pylons, the front doors, the lobby, and into the dispatch area, where three dispatchers were working at the time. He said a training session had concluded in a nearby room about 30 minutes before the crash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anderson said the driver is a local male resident who police had previous contact with, though not since 2019. He said investigators and the district attorney\u2019s office are reviewing the case and that charges are expected. The suspect is scheduled to be arraigned in court on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police said the incident appeared to be isolated and that there was no danger to the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BREAKING: Shrewsbury Police say they believe someone intentionally drove through the lobby of their police station this afternoon.
