Part of a wall along the Horseshoe was destroyed after a one-vehicle accident near the McCutchen House Wednesday morning, according to Capt. Eric Grabski of the Department of Law Enforcement and Safety.

 

The accident involved a single driver in the C1 lot and no injuries were reported.

 

"We're still investigating right now, but it doesn't appear to be anything more serious," Grabski said.

 

The vehicle struck the brick wall and knocked it down, causing damage to the bricks, some of which will be salvageable when repairing the wall, according to Grabski.

 

The Horseshoe was built in 1848 and is the oldest part of USC's campus. It was named to the National Registry of Historic Places in 1970.

 

Grabski said whether the driver was a USC student is unknown.
