Police were called to the scene of an accident in which a car was trapped in a home. Emergency workers who responded to the call at around 4 p.m. near the area of Bensalem Blvd and Springdale Dr., found a single car that went across a ballfield, broke through a fence, went down a small hill, and then crashed into the rear of a townhome. The Whitney Court townhome suffered significant damage. That is because the vehicle was completely embedded within it.
The driver was trapped in the vehicle for a brief period of time. Luckily, no one in the home, including pets, was hurt. The damage to the home is so significant that it may be impossible to fully fix it. However, they were working to determine how to stabilize the home.
Police are investigating to determine what caused the elderly driver to lose control of the vehicle and travel such a distance before crashing into the car. They were investigating. A medical emergency, reckless driving, intoxication, or simply making a mistake with the gas pedal can all be potential factors that result in a serious accident like this.
