HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colo. — The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office released a clip from surveillance video showing the moment a vehicle crashed through townhomes in Highlands Ranch Wednesday morning.

The video, released Thursday, shows the car traveling at a high rate speed across Fairview Parkway and down an embankment, where it went airborne and into the two townhomes.

It happened around 9:30 a.m. at 9737 Dunning Circle, just south of Valor Christian High School in Highlands Ranch.

The sheriff’s said the adult male driver suffered serious injuries but he is expected to survive. No one inside the homes was injured.

Authorities said the man, whose identity has not released, may have suffered a medical episode.

The extent of damage to the homes is unknown.
