A two car accident near the intersection of 34th and Trenton at approximately 4:15 pm, June 2 resulted in one person going to the hospital and serious damage to two vehicles.
Thad Williams who lives on the northwest corner of 34th and Trenton did not see the accident take place but heard it, as they impacted his house and yard.
Williams said:
"My little girl and I were just playing in the back yard when we heard three or four collisions, like a car accident and we looked out and saw that a Cadillac had ended up in our flower bed. At first we were concerned about him because the horn was stuck and it was really loud and the airbags were out. We couldn't really tell if there were one or two people in there because the windshield looked really bad. We found that it was an older gentleman that was able to get out of the car and he appeared to be o.k. When we turned around we saw that there was another car, a black BMW SUV that took off the left side of the tree and then went into the house. She stayed in her car until the Fire and paramedics arrived. I think she left in the ambulance but I don't know for sure.
She seemed to be pretty shaken up if nothing else.
"The Cadillac was going west on Trenton Street and the black SUV was going north on 34th, and she crossed the intersection and from what a witness said he was going really fast. A witness was coming east on Trenton and saw the Cadillac come over the hill, when he hit the car and pushed her," into the house.
The SUV landed in the side of our house and the Cadillac landed in the corner of our herb garden, and the mint is still alive."
"The towing company was great and let us move our plants and save everything."
