On Thursday, October 13, 2016 at 7:21 PM, the Antioch Police Department began receiving calls of a pickup truck into a residence at 2915 Lone Tree Way. Upon arrival, officers discovered the driver of the truck was traveling north on Lone Tree Way when he struck two parked cars before leaving the roadway and colliding with a residence through the garage.

The driver of the truck was found still sitting in the driver’s seat uninjured.

There was only one occupant home at the time of the incident. The victim was struck by debris from the collision and taken to an area hospital for minor injuries. Due to a gas main break, officers evacuated area residents to a safe distance until the gas could be shut off.

The driver was eventually arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.

This preliminary information is made available by the Field Services Bureau. There will be no further information released at this time.
