A Long Island home lay in ruins Saturday after a speeding Jeep hit an earthen mound at high speed, jumped high in the air and smashed through a wall on the second floor.
The spectacular wreck happened just after midnight in East Moriches.
The big vehicle ripped a giant hole in the side of the house, then caused more carnage inside as it fell into a foyer on the first floor. It came to rest on its rear end with its headlights pointing skyward.
The one person in the house was unhurt.
The 20-year-old driver suffered minor injuries. A passenger walked away unscathed.
Suffolk County Police charged him with driving while intoxicated, reckless endangerment and criminal mischief.
