Family home hit by truck in Cloverdale
It was a very close call for a family in Cloverdale Tuesday – Feb 27, 2018

It was a very close call for a family in Cloverdale on Tuesday morning when a truck plowed into their house just after 8 a.m.

It appears the driver veered off the road, crashed through the fence and hit the house, located in the 5700-block of 184 Street.

The truck left a gaping hole in the side of the house and narrowly missed a fire hydrant.

“My father-in-law, daughter and I were standing upstairs when we heard sounds and felt the house shake,” said homeowner Gina Unruh. “I knew someone had hit my house for some reason.”

Unruh’s biggest concern was her wedding dress, which was stored in the basement where the truck hit.

But it turns out, the dress escaped harm and only the protection bag suffered a small rip.

Unruh says the driver, who appeared to be in his 40s, was shaken but not hurt.

It is unclear at this time how the accident happened.
