GARDEN CITY, Utah — Police are asking the public for help in tracking down a driver they say crashed into a Garden City home and then fled the scene early Sunday morning.

In a press release posted to Facebook, the Rich County Sheriff's Office says the incident happened around 2:00 a.m. when a white Chevrolet pickup, going at a high speed, slid off the road and crashed into a house at 401 North Bear Lake Boulevard.

The crash damaged the front porch of the home and a nearby telephone pole. Fortunately, no one was inside the home at the time. The driver left the scene shortly thereafter.

A photo of the damaged home released by the Rich County Sheriff's Office. It's daytime, the two-story home has visible damage to the front porch, including a broken support beam. Tire treads lead off the road straight into the home, showing the path the pickup truck took.

Police say the vehicle sustained significant damage to the front and the driver's side rear panel.

Anyone with any video or information is asked to contact the Rich County Sheriff's Office at 435-793-2285.
