A man sustained injuries after he crashed his car into a home on Broadway Street in Marseilles. The incident occurred on Monday, September 21 as per the initial accident reports. The authorities later identified the man as John A. Hrouda, 51, of Marseilles.

According to the details shared by the Marseilles Police Department, the incident took place in the 300 block of the Broadway Street. Hrouda was traveling eastbound on the road when he apparently lost control of his vehicle. The vehicle then crashed into a house.

Hrouda sustained serious injuries in the crash. Once the first responders and paramedics arrived on the scene of the crash, Hrouda was first rushed to the St. Elizabeth Hospital. After receiving preliminary treatment at the hospital, he was then airlifted to the St. Anthony’s Hospital in Rockford.

The incident happened on Monday evening and was reported to the authorities at around 6:00 p.m.  Hrouda had no other passengers in his vehicle at the time. No other persons were injured in the incident. Homeowners who sustained property damage in the accident were identified as Paul Hayes and Amber Hayes.

According to the homeowners, the property damage they sustained in the crash was only minor. Meanwhile, the Marseilles Police Department has sought the services of a traffic crash expert to investigate the incident and divulge more details about it. It is unclear at this point precisely what caused John A. Hrouda to lose control of the vehicle. Subsequent accident reports from MPD may shed a light on this.
