Police say no arrests have been made after a dramatic crash in which a car ploughed into a house.
Neighbours said it was “a wonder someone wasn't killed” when the Fiat Punto smashed into the front window of the house in Thrush Road, Redcar.
Christine Jackson, 60, spoke of her shock after hearing an “almighty crash” and looking out to see a car sticking out of the front of the home next door.
It is understood that the woman who lives in the house, believed to be a pensioner, was in bed at the time at around 10.55pm on Friday.
Christine said: “Her sofa is by the window so if she had been sat there she would have been a goner. There was no window left at the front. It is a wonder someone wasn’t killed.
“I don’t know how on earth it has gone head-on into the window.”
The house was badly damaged, with rubble and debris lying in the street and the road was closed by police.
A Cleveland Police spokeswoman said: “There were no injuries. It was a damage only collision involving a woman driver and male passenger. The driver went to hospital as a precautionary measure. There have been no arrests.”
