I woke up to what sounded like a truck crashing into a wall. I wasn't too far off; it was the sound of a truck breaking the concrete wall of our building, knocking over an electricity pole, crashing into the parking lot, totaling 1 car, damaging another one and bending the gate of the building. The driver jumped out of the cabin Indiana Jones style right before the crash. Thankfully no one was hurt.
