SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) - Authorities say a drunken driver crashed into a sheriff’s deputy’s home in southwest Missouri on New Year’s Eve.

The Greene County Sheriff’s Office says in a Facebook post that no one was seriously hurt when the driver went off the side of a road and smashed into the corner of the home. The driver was under the age of 21.

Pictures posted online show a crumpled garage door and debris strewn across the driveway. The post says the deputy’s personal motorcycle and patrol car were damaged.
