A sport utility vehicle slammed into a house on King Avenue in Rosedale on Monday, tearing into a gas line and forcing authorities to shut down the roadway in both directions. No injuries were reported in the crash, which happened in the 5100 block near midday.
The vehicle struck the home Monday morning, according to WBAL, which said the crash was reported around 11:40 a.m. A separate report from Nottingham MD put the time at around 11:45 a.m., with the SUV striking the home in the 5100-block of King Avenue in the 21237 zip code. Both directions of King Avenue were shut down during the noon hour, per the same WBAL report, which said SKY 11 reported the crash. WBAL-TV's original report on the crash can be found on the station's site, which it published under the headline SUV crashes into house in Rosedale, SKY 11 reports - WBAL.
No injuries were reported from the crash, the station noted, even as the collision damaged a gas line running along King Avenue. Nottingham MD's report said the vehicle strike prompted evacuations and road closures, though the extent of either was not detailed in that account.
Driver Taken Into Custody
A motorist was arrested Monday morning after the vehicle crashed into the Rosedale residence, according to the same Nottingham MD report. That outlet said the driver was placed under arrest due to possible intoxication, though no additional detail on charges or the driver's identity was included in the report.
Beyond the arrest and the damaged gas line, key details remain unclear, including how long King Avenue stayed closed and the condition of the house itself. Neither report included information on the driver's identity, the SUV's make or model, or whether formal charges have been filed.
