TAYLOR, Mich. (WXYZ) — A young couple is lucky to be alive after a Ford F-150 went through their Taylor home. A home the couple just moved in to.
“We only stayed one night in the house,” said Samantha Suemnick.
Suemnick was inside the Leroy Street home with her boyfriend when the crash happened. She just so happened to step out of the room where it happened minutes before.
“The whole house shook and I heard a big boom,” Suemnick said.
Taylor police told 7 Action news the crash happened just after midnight Saturday.
The driver was the only one injured. He is currently in serious but stable condition, according to police.
It is suspected the driver was drunk during the time of the crash. Police say it is still under investigation.
“Just the way he was slurring his words and the way he was talking to me you could definitely tell that he was drinking,” Suemnick said.
Suemnick and her boyfriend tell 7 Action News the house will likely have to be gutted.
