Cops: ‘Distracted’ drunken driver slams into home
LEWISTON, Idaho — A couple escaped unharmed after they left their kitchen for the living room, just moments before a pickup truck came crashing through the kitchen wall. Lewiston police said a drunken driver was apparently participating in sexual activity with a passenger when he lost control, left the road and drove a 2003 Dodge pickup through the house, coming to rest in a nearby yard.
The Lewiston Tribune reported that neither the driver nor his passenger were injured. The driver was arrested on a misdemeanor drunken driving charge.
The residents of the home, Teresa Roesner-Weatherby and her husband, Bill Weatherby, also escaped injury. Damage to the home is estimated at about $50,000.
