Phoenix, AZ (November 18, 2019) – Officers from the Phoenix Police Department say that an SUV crashed into a home near Loop 101 and 16th Street on Monday.
According to officers, the accident occurred on Monday afternoon. A car was waiting to turn left and another driver in an SUV decided to pass them in the opposite lane. However, the turning car decided to go at that point, clipping the SUV and sending it flying into a backyard and home. Minor injuries were reported in the crash, though it isn’t clear who was injured. Phoenix EMTs were at the scene and appeared to transport at least one victim to the hospital.
