SAN ANTONIO – A woman in her 30s lost control while driving and crashed into a home, according to San Antonio police. The crash happened June 19 at around 6:20 p.m. in the 200 block of Oak Knoll Drive.
According to a news release, the woman, whose name was not immediately released, lost control of her car at a curve, and went through one home’s yard before going through another’s fence and into a second home, leaving a hole in that house.
The woman was reported to have only minor injuries, including seat belt bruising and a bump on the head. She was given a sobriety test at the scene but was not deemed intoxicated, police said.
SAPD said the home and car had significant damage, and the first homes’ water and gas lines were plugged as a safety precaution.
If you are injured by a car crashing in your house
In this scenario, a personal injury claim would be handled in much the same way as if you were a pedestrian and you were hit by a car. The at-fault party would be responsible for paying your medical bills, so it’s essential that you have a medical professional evaluate your injuries and assign a treatment regimen to recover fully from the injuries you just suffered.
The at-fault party would also be liable for the damages caused to your house. Suing for this type of damage can be time-sensitive and requires you to provide corroboration before being adequately compensated for your financial loss. As you might expect, corroborating your side of the story is not the simplest thing in the world to do.
You should consider contacting a personal injury law firm on a contingency fee basis and the law firm can help conduct a thorough investigation of all the damages to your person and to your property.
