Car Hits House, Causes Gas Leak in Syosset

A family was forced to relocate after a car left the road and collided with their Syosset home, causing a gas leak early Tuesday night.

A Syosset family was forced to leave their Doone Drive home for the night after a car crashed into the side of their home, causing a gas leak. The original 9-1-1 call was reporting an odor of natural gas in the home, but dispatchers could hear someone yelling for an ambulance in the background.

As Nassau County Police Department officers arrived on the scene, they discovered a vehicle that broke through a fence and collided into the side of the Syosset home. The collision damaged the foundation of the residence according to sources at the scene.

With an unsafe home, the Syosset family was forced to leave their home for the evening until the issues regarding the safety of the home could be identified fully and corrected.

At least one person was transported to the hospital as a result of this incident.
