Car crashes into the top floor of a house in bizarre 'intentional' incident

Plenty of people have been involved in road accidents, but few can say they’ve crashed through the top floor of a house.

Emergency services were called to the scene of a bizarre incident in central Pennsylvania after a car was launched into the air as part of an “intentional” incident.

They found the vehicle lodged in the second floor of a house on the 800 block of Alfarata Road in Decatur Township on August 6.

The driver was taken to Geisinger Lewistown Hospital, while the three people who were at home inside the house at the time were evaluated by paramedics but were not taken to a hospital.

The Junction Fire Company was called to help out the Decatur Volunteer Fire Company and they responded and were on the scene “within minutes”.
