Bangor police Sgt. Paul Edwards says 25-year-old Renee Harris of Alton told police that an oncoming car veered into her lane about 9 a.m. Sunday. She swerved and crash into the custom-made black iron fence outside the home of author Stephen King. No one was injured.

Police estimate that approximately $100,000 in damage was done to the custom made gate and fencing around it. King spokeswoman Marsha DeFilippo says he was not home at the time.
