Florida: Images of shock when a truck crashed into an airport lounge

Security cameras recorded the terrifying moment when a truck veered rapidly into the airport arrivals area of ​​the United States of America. The incident happened at Sarasota-Bradenton Airport in Florida.

For unknown reasons, the driver of the white pickup developed high speed on a ring road of the airport, first penetrating the fence and then the wall of his facilities.

After the violent collision, the car stopped at the counters of the car rental companies, with the employees who were in their positions at that time, crouching in fear to take shelter.

The 40-year-old driver of the pickup was seriously injured and taken to hospital. No other injuries were reported as the accident occurred in the early morning hours and the airport facilities did not move much as the last scheduled flight landed 20 minutes ago.

According to initial estimates, the damage caused reaches a cost of $ 250.000, while it will take several months for their full restoration.

"It's terrible that no one was injured," said Highway Police Chief Ken Watson.
