No one hurt after pole crashes through car windshield in Midland

MIDLAND, Texas (KOSA) – It was a scary situation for two women driving home from the Southside Walmart in Midland on Monday morning.

A metal pole that was on top of a truck turning into a parking lot came loose and went straight through their car’s front windshield.

The car had come to a stop as the driver was waiting to turn.

No one was hurt in the accident.

Both women tell CBS7 they’re okay but still in shock after experiencing it
