Crash Into Garage Doors Prompted Explosion Fears

Posted: Updated:

Check out the damage after an 88-year-old man crashed his pickup truck into a pair of garage doors.

SkyFOX was over Donegal Drive in Lower Macungie Township earlier on Thursday.

Police said the man backed his truck in and out, crashing into the garage doors and walls.

The crash was so loud that neighbors actually thought it was an explosion. Authorities evacuated 14 units in the surrounding condominium complex.

The driver was not seriously hurt.
