A Crash Landing Without A Getaway

At around one in the morning on Wednesday, Ralph White and his family awoke suddenly to “falling debris and smoke” from what they soon found to be a car crashed into their apartment’s roof.

The driver of the car, Benjamin Tucker, twenty-six years old, lost control of the vehicle and crash landed into the White residence’s rooftop.  Tucker had stolen the car from a nearby house and upon his escape via jumping off the house’s roof suffered a broken leg.

It seems Tucker could not handle driving a vehicle with a broken leg (and let’s be realistic, who would?) and unintentionally crashed the car into the apartment’s roof in an attempt at a getaway.

Police arrested the perpetrator not too far away from the scene of the crime.  He is held on the charge of hit-and-run and evading a police officer.
