The driver of a sport utility vehicle crashed into an east Tulsa home on Sunday afternoon.

Tulsa police said the SUV was westbound on 26th St. and blew through a stop sign while trying to turn left onto 121st East Avenue.

The 18-year-old driver lost control of the vehicle and slammed into the side of a garage of a brick home.
