A woman in her mid-20s was cut from a car by the Calgary Fire Department after it crashed through an attached garage and hit the house early Saturday morning.
Around 2:30 a.m. the CFD responded to the 3100 block of Palliser Drive S.W. for reports of a single vehicle collision with a building.
Upon arrival crew discovered that a car had crashed into and passed through a double-attached front drive garage, coming to rest against the front of the house.
CFD investigators say the four occupants in the vehicle were estimated to be in their mid-20s.
One female patient was trapped inside the vehicle and the three remaining occupants were out of the car upon arrival.
