A Garda investigation is underway after a freak car crash left a house at risk of collapse.

Luckily, there were no serious injuries after the incident near the centre of Youghal, Co Cork, over the weekend.

The man who was driving the car was taken to hospital for treatment for relatively minor injuries after the 2002 Honda Civic he was driving was left partially embedded in the front of a terraced cottage on the town’s Ashe St just before midnight on Saturday.
