Westford Police said officers responded to the two-car crash shortly before 6:30 p.m. in the parking lot near Panera Bread.

When they arrived at the scene, they noticed the driver, 62-year-old Kenneth Paul Eldridge of Littleton, was exhibiting signs of alcohol intoxication and placed him under arrest. No injuries were reported in the crash.
