Cheyenne residents Bill Lembke and Susie Degner are rebuilding their home after a truck crashed into it during a freak accident, leaving a huge hole in the side of the house and the couple with at least $30,000 in damage.

The couple live right off Central Avenue in Cheyenne, one of the busiest streets in the community. Now, Lembke considers the experience an “unnecessary inconvenience.” At the time, the crash was a bit more dramatic.

How It Happened

It started Oct. 11, when a pickup hopped the curb and smashed into their central Cheyenne house, knocking out a sizable portion of their brick wall and leaving a gaping hole into their living room right around the fireplace.

The Toyota Tundra had crashed into their home after it was hit by another vehicle, spinning and rolling over three times before crashing into their brick wall and chimney .
