This is from Steve Redick:
On the early morning of February 28th, I captured these images near the 4500 block of North Austin. The photos were taken the following day. I've never seen a car embedded so deeply into the corner of a building before—it's quite astonishing when you take a closer look. What struck me even more was that the Chicago Fire Department (CFD) didn't stay on scene; instead, they handed it over to a contractor for removal. I would be really concerned about potential fire hazards or structural collapse. I wasn’t there to witness what led up to this incident, so I can't comment on the cause, but I thought these photos were worth sharing.Steve

It's always interesting to see how people respond to such unusual events. While I don’t know the full story behind this accident, the image alone tells a powerful tale. It’s rare to see a vehicle in such a state, and it raises questions about what could have caused it. I hope the area has been properly assessed for safety, and that those involved are okay. If you're interested, you can check out the full gallery of photos below.
