In Nevada around four o'clock in the morning two college students were awoken from their sleep. What woke them is incredible. Kristen Palmer and Trent Wood were awoken by a drunk driver who rammed his car into the house. Eric Cross was the drunk driver who drove a stolen car into the home of Kristen Palmer and Trent Wood. Cross told authorities that he thought the house he ran into was his ex girlfriends house. His intentions were to go to his ex girlfriends house and drive into her house because she is dating someone new. Kristen Palmer and Trent Wood were pinned to their bed by the car for almost an hour. Emergency workers had to use chainsaws to help get their bodies free. Eric Cross, the person who drove the car into the house is accused of drunken driving, battery with a deadly weapon, driving without a license, possession of a stolen vehicle, and careless driving.
My response:
I think not only is it wrong that someone was driving while they had been drinking, but the fact that Eric Cross was going to target his ex-girlfriend is wrong as well. He said that he was upset because she has a new boyfriend, but that isn't a reason to go and take a car into her home. Not only did he not hit his ex-girlfriends house, but he hit a completely different persons house. He could have caused the people in the house serious injury. He also destroyed their home causing them to loose many belongings.
