GLENDALE, AZ — One person has been hospitalized with serious injuries after crashing through the fence at Glendale's Apollo High School early Monday morning.
Police say the crash occurred around 2:30 a.m. near 43rd and Northern avenues.
Video from the scene showed a passenger car that crashed through a metal fence and onto the school property.
What led to the crash is under investigation, but Glendale police say speed is believed to be a factor. It appears the vehicle rolled several times while attempting to make a turn before crashing through the fencing.
Police say the driver, a 27-year-old man, was ejected from the car and suffered life-threatening injuries.
