Emergency personnel worked to free the driver of a pick-up truck after it struck a home in Westfield, Ind.
Firefighters arrived in the 16200 block of Countryside Boulevard and found a maroon pick-up partially inside the living room of a home.
According to the Westfield Fire Department, a resident of the home sat down on the couch just moments before he heard a noise coming from outside.
Seconds later a pick-up truck slammed through an exterior wall throwing debris across the living room.
The resident, his wife and child escaped without injury.
The unidentified driver was also uninjured, but required the assistance of Westfield firefighters to exit the vehicle.
Fire officials report the driver was released from their medical treatment without going to the hospital.
Firefighters spent about an hour rebuilding the demolished wall.
