A Tesla crashed into a Clairemont home on Thursday, injuring six people including a minor. San Diego police are investigating the cause of the collision.
Six people, including one child, were hospitalized after a Tesla plowed into a Clairemont home on Thursday morning [1]. The crash occurred around 11 a.m. in the 4600 block of Chateau Drive after the Tesla collided with a Mercedes at the intersection of Diane Avenue and Chateau Drive [2].
Surveillance footage shows both vehicles traveling southbound on Diane Avenue before the Tesla struck the rear of the Mercedes [2]. The impact sent the Mercedes into a retaining wall, while the Tesla veered off the road, destroyed a fence and a backyard canopy, and drove into the home’s living room [1].
San Diego Fire and Rescue transported the victims to local hospitals, with two individuals suffering from major injuries and four others sustaining minor injuries [1]. Five of the injured were in the Tesla, while one person was riding in the Mercedes [2].
The residents of the home were working in their offices at the time of the crash and were not injured, though the city fire marshal red-tagged the property due to significant structural damage [2]. San Diego police are currently investigating the circumstances of the collision, including whether speed played a role in the incident [1].
The crash remains under active investigation as authorities review the sequence of events leading up to the impact [1]. It is unclear if any charges will be filed as officials continue to examine the surveillance footage and the factors that caused the Tesla to leave the roadway.
