BURBANK, Ill. — An early morning collision caused one vehicle to overturn and sent another careening into a house, police said.
The accident happened about 6:12 a.m. near 79th Street and Laramie Avenue.
According to Division Chief Mike Dudlo of the Burbank Police Department, a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van was northbound on Laramie when it struck a Lincoln Navigator traveling westbound on 79th Street.
Dudlo said the van rolled onto its side and the Lincoln Navigator crashed into a house in the 5200 block of 79th Street.
“The resident present within the home was not physically injured as a result of the collision,” Dudlo said.
Burbank firefighters extracted the driver of the Sprinter van and transported him to the hospital for treatment of what were described as non-life threatening injuries. No other injuries were reported.
Dudlo said drugs and alcohol did not seem to be a factor in the crash.
“The driver of the van was cited for his involvement in the accident,” Dudlo said.
