Police in New Jersey released body camera video of a stolen car going over a guardrail, crashing on a house and car, narrowly avoiding a person who was walking nearby.

The incident happened at 12:30 a.m. on Sunday morning when officers from both the Verona Police Department and North Caldwell Police Department were responding to a request for assistance regarding a stolen vehicle in Verona, New Jersey.

When police officers began to walk towards the vehicle, the car’s driver took the car off-road where it went over a guard rail falling 21 feet, eventually hit the side of a house and narrowly missed a person.

The car was located by a tracking system, officials said.
