Only In Missouri

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Kansas City police say a family escaped injury when a sport utility vehicle flew off a street and landed on the roof of their house.

Police say the accident Wednesday night occurred when the driver of the SUV blew through an intersection and went into the home's yard, which acted like a ramp and launched the vehicle 10 to 15 feet off the ground.

It landed in the attic area and started to sink but the eight people in the house were able to escape without injury.

Police found the driver sitting on the roof. Firefighters had to cut a man and a woman out of the vehicle but none of the three were seriously injured.

Police doubt the house will ever be inhabitable again.

I'm amused and worried. Was he drunk or fresh from a Duke's of Hazzard marathon? I just don't know.  Seriously, can you imagine trying to file that insurance claim?
