A total of 14 people were displaced in Montgomery County, Maryland, Friday morning after a car slammed into a house in the overnight hours.

Authorities said the collision happened in the 400 block of University Boulevard West near Dennis Avenue just before 2 a.m.

Moments after driving off the roadway, the vehicle struck the corner of the house where the home’s gas meter was located. A gas-fed fire erupted immediately upon impact, according to Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson Pete Piringer.

All of the home’s occupants were able to exit the residence.

It’s unclear if any of the residents sustained injuries related to the collision or subsequent house fire. The driver was hospitalized, but Montgomery County officials did not specify the extent of their injuries.

Piringer said some 50 firefighters were called to the scene before the fire was extinguished.
