Chimney Crashes into Lakewood Home

A Lakewood family escaped unharmed when a neighbor's chimney crashed into their home.

The Lakewood Scoop reports it happened while the other house was being demolished.  The family says one person was actually in bed only about 10 feet away when the chimney fell.

The incident damaged an upstairs bathroom and the living room beneath it and knocked out gas and power lines.  The home was evacuated until safety inspections could be completed.
