SYRACUSE — Shortly before 1:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 3, Turkey Creek Fire and EMS were dispatched to the area behind Lake City Bank, 502 S. Huntington St., Syracuse.
Upon arrival, first responders discovered a blue Nissan SUV that experienced airbag deployment after colliding with a tree on the north side of the alleyway.
The driver reportedly had exited the drive thru at Lake City Bank when something became lodged beneath the foot pedals of her vehicle. Instead of turning into the paved alleyway, the SUV continued traveling east from the bank, running over a chainlink fence and entering the backyard of the home located at 104 E. Maple Grove.
The vehicle continued diagonally across the yard and drove over the chain link fence bordering the alley on north side of the yard, crossing the alley and coming to rest against a grove of trees.. The impact caused significant damage to the front of the SUV and was enough to deploy the vehicle’s front airbag.
The Nissan’s lone occupant was transported by Turkey Creek EMS to an area hospital with reported lower body injuries.
