A 70-year-old woman who lived alone in the affected house was performing light exercises on her bed at the time of the accident. She reported being awakened by a loud noise, 'like a plane crashing,' and found her home filled with dust, making it impossible to see. The woman sustained a back injury and has been hospitalized. The trailer driver was unharmed. Police are currently investigating the precise cause of the accident, including why the trailer's rear section unexpectedly detached.
