Stratford police say a man drove his pickup truck through a house, causing extensive damage.

The incident happened on Nichols Avenue Monday afternoon. The homeowner says the driver crashed through the garage and dining room before exiting out the other side, tearing the back deck off the house.

No one was in the home at the time of the crash.

Police say the driver was ticketed. They say he may have a medical condition that could have caused him to lose control.

The homeowners of eight years say their home is now condemned. They say they were able to gather some of their things before heading out to find a place to stay.
