May 5, 2014 10:31am
It was a rude awakening for some St. Thomas residents, when police say a drunk driver plowed into their home.
Around 2:35am on May 4, police say a 57-year-old man who had been drinking at a nearby bar, failed to handle a turn on a residential street as he drove his white pickup.
He hit a tree and then the house.
Police were called and the man was arrested for impaired driving.
Police say a breathalyzer test given to the man registered twice the legal limit.
Damage to the house was minor and no one was hurt.
