Heavy damage was left behind in a neighborhood in Southwest Miami-Dade when a vehicle collided with a house.
Deputies were called out to a Kendall home after an accident took place at around 11:55 p.m. Sunday along Southwest 142nd Avenue and Southwest 24th Street.
Shortly after the crash, the black SUV appeared to have jumped the curb, crashing through a white fence and into the side of the home, leaving behind heavy damage.
The neighbors next door told 7News they heard the crash.
“This person just went head-on,” said a neighbor. “I mean, the fence didn’t even stop them, you know? There was a big bang, and yeah, we’re all pretty much shaken up. It’s crazy. Crazy to know that it was your neighbor. Thankfully they’re okay.”
The homeowner, who chose not to speak on camera, said his family was home at the time; however, no one inside was injured.
The driver of the SUV was taken by ambulance to the hospital. According to the homeowner, the driver was conscious at the time; however, their current condition is unknown.
“They put him on a stretcher. The ambulance didn’t stop there; they stopped right here on this street,” said Rene Martinez, another neighbor. “They brought him here, they put him on the stretcher, and they left.
The area has since been cleared.
The circumstances leading up to the crash, as well as the identity of the driver, are currently unknown. Those who live near the crash are counting their blessings.
The homeowner says he believes the driver may have run a red light and hit another car before smashing into the back of his house.
7News has reached out to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office for more information.
