OKLAHOMA CITY (KOCO) — A driver fled after a pickup truck crashed through the side of a southwest Oklahoma City home and into a family’s living room.
The crash happened in a neighborhood near Southwest Grand Boulevard and South May Avenue. Two people were asleep inside, but they were not hurt.
The collision left a large hole in the side of the house, and Oklahoma City fire crews had to ensure the home’s structural stability as there was a danger of collapse.
Police told KOCO 5 that the person driving the pickup truck got out and ran away. Along with damage to the home, the driver crashed into another truck and moved the second vehicle completely across the front lawn and smashed it into another vehicle.
A girl who heard the crash told KOCO 5 that she called 911.
“I was just scared for my neighbor because, like, what if they weren’t OK,” Karely Fierro said. “I was surprised because my brother’s truck is really, really heavy. And just to see that it got all the way over there from my driveway, it was just so scary. And I felt bad for my cousin.”
Information about the driver has not been released.
