Truck Crashes into House After High-Speed Chase
A truck almost hit a woman before plowing into her house in Batavia, Genesee County, Monday afternoon.

A Genesee County investigator said the truck wouldn't stop after deputies tried to pull him over for speeding. After using a spike strip on the suspect's vehicle it swerved onto South Main Street.

"Then, all of a sudden, I saw the pickup come. It was just erratic. Like it was just going straight for, I saw it go straight for my house. Like, I had to move out of the way basically because I was standing right there. Cause I stand right there where that curb is to wait for my daughter, to wait for my daughter to come home from school," said Luz Castro of Batavia.

"Life is a matter of seconds and inches you know? And luckily, her child wasn't here getting off the bus at that moment," said Investigator Chris Kautz, Genesee County Sheriff's Department.

The driver of the truck, Louis Reeb, 19, of Corfu, was airlifted to Strong Hospital, where he is listed in guarded condition. There is no word yet on what charges Reeb may face.
