CHANDLER, AZ — A Chandler family was displaced after a Tesla crashed into their bedroom Wednesday night.

The car reversed and crashed into the home near Alma School and Germann roads around 9 p.m.

ABC15 crews at the scene learned the driver had just purchased the vehicle hours earlier.

A man living in the home told ABC15 he was on the bed when the vehicle came rolling up onto the bed with him.

Because of adrenaline, he said, he wasn’t sure if he got hit by the car or not but was wincing in pain as a tow truck driver pulled the car from the structure.

The family said they are renters and would be staying at a hotel for at least one night.

Fortunately, no serious injuries were reported during the incident.

The cause of the crash has not been released by officials.
