SACRAMENTO — A woman in California was recovering after being impaled in the leg by a large metal bar that fell off a big truck while traveling on the highway, according to officials.

The unnamed victim was riding in a car on Highway 99 in Sacramento on Saturday, Nov. 2 when the metal bar fell off of the truck in front of them, authorities said.

“The metal bar then bounced up and entered the right front of the Chevy, traveled through the engine compartment and entered the passenger compartment of the Chevy, and impaled the right leg of the right front passenger,” the California Highway Patrol’s South Sacramento division said in a statement.

The driver was able to pull off the road safely and call 911. First responders freed the woman from the car and she was transported to a hospital, where she was in stable condition.

CHP officials said the truck did not stop after the metal bar fell off, and authorities were seeking any information in the case.

In October in Georgia, a driver made it out alive after he rear-ended a log truck and the logs pierced his car from the front windshield to the back window.
