Car flies into 2nd floor of Santa Ana building
PUBLISHED: | UPDATED:
A speeding car struck a median and flew into the second floor of a Santa Ana building early Sunday, Jan. 14, getting lodged into a dental office, authorities said.
The white Nissan Altima was traveling at a high rate of speed northbound on French Street when the accident occurred in the 300 block of E. 17th Street, Santa Ana Police said in a news release.
The driver hit a raised center median on 17th Street, launching the car into the air. The vehicle struck the 2nd floor of the building and was lodged there, sticking out of the structure as police arrived at around 5:30 a.m.
The car’s occupants, who police said had minor injuries, were extricated from the vehicle by responders from the Orange County Fire Department. A small fire was quickly extinguished, according to OCFA.

“The driver, who admitted to using narcotics, will be admitted to a local hospital for observation,” the news release said.
Officers will submit a DUI/Narcotics case to the Orange County District Attorney’s office, police said.
Public Works was summoned to examine the integrity of the structure and Los Angeles County Fire Department arrived with a large wrecker truck to remove the car from the building.
