Bel Air crash into house

That's not the only vehicle that has crashed into a Baltimore area home recently.

In November, police in Bel Air responded after a man in a locksmith work van hit a gas line and then a house, causing an explosion. WJZ obtained a video that shows the van veering toward the house on Woodhome Drive.

The home sustained extensive damage and the pets died.

The driver reportedly told Harford County deputies he blacked out before driving off the road and into the house at 3:30 a.m.

Joseph Pollard, 27, was charged with failure to provide insurance information; failure to obey traffic control devices; failure to control speed; reckless driving; and negligent driving.
