Drunk driver rams SUV into sober house

A drunk driver is being blamed for crashing an SUV into a sober living facility in South Los Angeles.

The crash happened on Saturday night at 80th and Figueroa streets. Firefighters arrived to find the SUV had ploughed into the building and ended up in a room.



The residents were sleeping at the time of the crash. Five people suffered minor injuries as did the driver.

Police didn't release the driver's name but said the person will be charged with felony DUI.

Not ironic, but a sad sight nonetheless. Irresponsible damage like that shows how easy a car can plow through a house and do damage, but thankfully, no one was around to be caught in an accident like this that could do some serious bodily harm.
