LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - A driver had to be rushed to the hospital after a violent crash.

The vehicle took out part of a wooden fence, and a plank could be seen sticking through the front windshield.

The driver was taken to UK Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Lexington police say speed and alcohol were likely factors in the crash.
