Around 1 a.m. the Calgary Fire Department responded to the 300 block of Sunmills Dr. S.E. for reports of a vehicle colliding with a house, its two occupants trapped inside.
Upon arrival crews discovered two patients trapped inside a vehicle which had collided with a tree, travelled through an attached garage of a single family residence before penetrating and coming to rest inside an attached garage of a second residence.
