The driver of a Tesla Model 3 escaped serious injuries after driving his car off a 40-foot drop and landing in a daycare playground in Portland early Monday morning.
Police said the unidentified man suffered a medical incident, possibly a seizure, before crashing through a row of trees bordering the parking lot above the Health Starts Children Center, which was closed at the time.
Witnesses who helped him out of the vehicle, which came to a rest on its drivers-side door, told Fox 12 News that he was able to walk and looked physically fine after the incident.
