Emergency crews had carefully removed her from the room, treated her for abrasions, and evaluated her for additional injuries.
KFOX14/CBS4 had previously spoken to the woman’s grandson, Jonathan Figueroa, who described the harrowing scene: “She was trapped under debris, including an iron wrought iron gate and other material from the home.”
He added, “My grandmother was very fortunate that God was with her. The amount of debris and the impact that she received from that truck being projected into her bedroom, is something that will never leave my mind.”
The aftermath left a massive pile of debris, with the wall completely boarded up.
Figueroa shared an update on his grandmother’s condition: “God is great. She is fortunately here in her home. She’s got some possible fractures that we’re tending to right now, and she has some lacerations and some cuts that she received from last night’s incident.”
However, the condition of the other person taken to the hospital remains unclear.
El Paso Police have not released any further information.
