Car crashes into Costa Mesa apartment, entire complex red tagged: Driver claims gas pedal stuck

Share this article:

A car crashed into an apartment in Costa Mesa Tuesday, but no one was injured.

The vehicle ended up “a good five feet into the apartment” at 2110 Newport Blvd., according to Costa Mesa Fire Department Capt. Chris Coates.

The driver reported that the gas pedal got stuck when she started the car, according to Coates, who said the cause of the 10 a.m. crash was under investigation.

The man and woman who rent the apartment weren’t home at the time, he said. One of their pet cats was recovered, but the other was missing.

A neighbor with special needs presented some challenges for firefighters as they evacuated the building, but he was allowed back in when firefighters shored up part of the red-tagged complex, Coates said.

The apartment damaged by the car cannot be occupied until the landlord gets a licensed contractor in there to fix it, he said.

Adrian Reeman Transforms Flat Into DIY Versailles

Kristin shares a Chicago home with a dog, a rabbit, two cats, a husband, and an 11-year-old daughter. Adrian Reeman is a DIY guru! He has spent the last 30 years turning his Southhampton council flat into a replica of the Palace of Versailles. Over time he has transformed the walls, ceiling, fireplace, and cupboards in every room. His ninth floor apartment now has a palatial feel with an interior fit for a king. Despite devoting hundreds of hours to working his magic on wardrobes, chairs, chests, and tables, Adrian has spent very little money, because he finds or makes everything himself! Some of the tables, for example, are made from discarded wooden salad bowls , while the detailing on the fireplace was created using the brass prongs from plugs. Adrian is currently creating a toilet with a faux marble finish  to serve as the perfect throne. What’s even more incredible is that Adrian has no professional design experience , nor has he ever visited Versailles ! To say he figured this ...
