      XPost: alt.drugs.pot, oc.general, sac.politics       XPost: talk.politics.misc       From: pot.news@latimes.com              A Nissan sedan became airborne and crashed into a California       dental office on Sunday morning, coming to rest dangling out of       the building’s second story, the authorities said.              The police in Santa Ana, Calif., said the car clipped a median       outside the building and flew about 60 feet before slamming into       the 17th Street Dental Office.              The crash, which happened at about 5:25 a.m., rattled guests in       a motel next door but the dental practice was closed at the time.              The Los Angeles County Fire Department used a specialized       forklift and wrecker to remove the car, the police said. One of       the two people inside the vehicle was able to exit on his own,       but emergency workers had to remove the other person, a police       spokesman said.              The driver told officers he had used drugs before the crash and       was taken to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries, the       police said. The spokesman said that the authorities had filed a       charge of driving under the influence but that the driver had       not yet been arraigned because he was in the hospital.              The passenger also sustained minor injuries.              On Sunday afternoon, the car was gone from the building but a       giant hole remained on the second floor of the dental office.       The owner of the practice could not be reached for comment.              A woman who works at the motel next door said it was fortunate       the motel was unscathed. “Inside, it’s a major loss,” the woman,       who declined to provide her name, said. “It’s a big hole.”              https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/14/us/car-crash-santa-ana.html              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
