SOUTHFIELD (WWJ) -- Oakland County authorities are at the scene of a crash where a vehicle reportedly hit two homes.

The incident happened around 8 a.m. Friday as a man driving a Toyota RAV SUV tried to cross three lanes from the center turn lane at Alta Vista Place near Ten Mile Road in Southfield, and hit a Ford Expedition SUV.


"He took off and swerved away very fast," said Sandler. "He shouldn't have tried to do that; maybe the judgement wasn't there today or something."

The RAV driver then slammed into two homes on Alta Vista Place, according to witness, Dr. David Sandler.

Dr. Sandler told WWJ Newsradio 950 the at-fault driver is 75-years-old.

Police aren't saying at this time if there are any serious injuries.

Police don't know the cause of the crash, but are looking at possible mechanical failure.

Drivers in the area should use caution as police are investigating.
