Car slams into house at Tumbi Umbi

Car causes damage to house

Tumbi Umbi homeowners have been praised by emergency response crews for their quick thinking to put out a car fire after it slammed into the front of their house.

Berkeley Vale Rural Fire Brigades and Central Coast VRA Rescue Squad, along with multiple other crews, were called to the Beckingham Rd address on Friday night, December 2.

A small fire was extinguished by the RFS and structure stability of the front of the house was assessed by VRA.

A rescue helicopter was on standby but stood down after NSW Ambulance paramedics assessed two people at the scene.

They were taken to hospital to be treated for minor injuries.
