SERVPRO is here to help.

Two people were arrested after a vehicle crashed into a four plex in San Jose early this morning, prompting the displacement of 16 residents living there

The crash was reported at about 12:15 a.m. in the 1300 block of San Tomas Aquino Road.

The crash ruptured a gas line, so fire crews and police officers helped to get eight adults and eight children out of the home.

Residents reported the female driver fled in a white pickup truck driven by a male. While officers were at the scene, the registered owner of the vehicle that struck the building called police to report that it had been stolen.

Fire crews shut off the gas line but the 16 residents remain displaced this morning because a building inspector will look into the structural integrity of the building.

SERVPRO of SW San Jose is there to help out in all ways that we can to clean up the fire damage and have people back in their homes.
