Crews found a pickup truck stuck in a tree almost ten feet off the ground Sunday morning near Sherwood.
Firefighters used thermal imaging to scan the truck at Highway 99 and Middleton Road and found it was empty. The details of how the truck got into the tree are a mystery to investigators. They were first alerted to the tree at 7:30 a.m. and called area hospitals, but no trauma patients came in overnight.
PGE was at the scene due to safety concerns over power lines near the tree.

If you are going to screw up, screw up so hard that it makes the internet. No point in half measures.

The driver was NOT male! (ducking)Can they really blame you?
As a side note, besides her obvious lack of driving skills, who would be holding their car keys in their hand for all the world to see after doing that.

They were first alerted to the tree at 7:30 a.m And it's a good thing, too. Otherwise they'd have never noticed the TRUCK in it.

Maybe she’s proud. I don’t think I could have done that if I tried.
