A spokesperson for the sheriff's department said it was unknown if drugs or alcohol was a factor.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The driver of a truck that crashed into a Sacramento home was taken to the hospital early Monday morning, according the sheriff's department. 

The crash happened on the 7200 block of Palmer House Drive off of Florin Road. 

A spokesperson for the sheriff's department said that the truck was driving down Florin Road at roughly 3 a.m. on June 21 when it veered and lost control. 

According to neighbors at the scene, the truck hit four cars from two separate homes, sending bricks and debris into the backyards of surrounding homes.

Before crashing into the garage of one home, the truck had completely rammed through the metal and brick barriers separating the two homes on Palmer House Drive.
