A box truck hit a house in Silver Creek this morning, shifting it a couple of feet of its foundation.
Sheriff’s deputies say two people were in the house but weren’t hurt, although the Silver Creek Fire Department did have to use a ladder to rescue them from the second floor. The Red Cross is helping them find temporary shelter.
The truck driver, 25-year-old Joseph Bostic of Buffalo, was taken to Lake Shore Hospital for treatment of minor injuries. He was cited for driving at an unsafe speed and other traffic violations.
The truck did spill some diesel fuel.
