Man Crashes Car In Alum Rock House, Faces DUI Charge: CHP

SAN JOSE, CA — A man in his 20s was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence early Thursday morning after crashing into a house and several cars in San Jose's Alum Rock neighborhood, according to the California Highway Patrol.

Officers responded to Stewart and Rose avenues at 4:21 a.m. on reports of a man who had driven a blue Dodge Charger into a home.

CHP Officer Ross Lee said the man hit several parked cars while driving down Stewart toward Rose, then made a 90-degree left turn into the front porch area of the last house on Stewart. The crash damaged wood paneling that leads into a crawl space, but the house didn't appear to be significantly damaged, according to Lee.

The man was taken to a hospital to be medically cleared before being booked into Santa Clara County Jail. His identity has not yet been released.

No one else was injured and the crash is under investigation.
