Police are investigating a two-vehicle collision that sent a truck crashing through a church building on the southeast side of the metro, Wednesday morning.

First responders were called out to the scene near SE 29th St. and S. Westminster Rd. just before 7 a.m. Once on scene, crews found that two vehicles were involved in the wreck and that one of the vehicles, a white pickup, had crashed and was completely inside of the Charity Free Will Baptist Church.

Investigators say the driver of the white pickup told them he was going eastbound on SE 29th St. and that the sun was in his eyes right before the crash. Police tell News 9 that may have caused him to run a stop sign and collide with a vehicle that was heading south on Westminster.

The call originally went out as an injury collision, but authorities tell News 9 that no one was seriously hurt.
