Driver Backs into Home in West Melbourne

(West Melbourne, Fla.) - Neighbors were surprised to see a car had collided with a home near the 1500 block of Vista Lake Circle in West Melbourne, this morning.  Brevard County Fire Rescue (BCFR) arrived on scene to find a car had backed over an electrical box and came to rest against a home and a natural gas meter.  Crews quickly assessed the driver for injury, secured the vehicle and shut off the gas line.

Florida Power and Light (FPL) was requested to secure power.  FPL says nearly 10 homes were without power due to the accident and didn't have an accurate estimate when power would be restored.

Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) was on scene to investigate the accident.  There was no structural damage to the house and no reported injuries.
