SAN ANTONIO -- A driver sent her SUV flying into a west-side apartment building Wednesday morning.
Witnesses told police that around 9 a.m.an elderly woman driver suddenly accelerated in the parking lot of the Bethel Place Apartments in the 500 block of Acme. That acceleration launched her vehicle over the curb and into an apartment bedroom.
Fortunately, the woman who lives in the damaged apartment was not home. She and her 1-year-old son were at a doctor's appointment when the accident occurred.
But the car did send the apartment bed flying.
A sister upstairs said she heard the commotion, but didn't think it was anything more than a loud neighbor.
Maintenance workers immediately began repairs to the apartment wall.
The driver is expected to be OK.
