From the Lewistown news paper:

Vehicle soars nearly 90 feet before crash landing on school roof

by ANNETTE HAYDEN News-Argus staff writer

A bizarre scene greeted people traveling past Highland Park Elementary Friday morning, where they witnessed the aftermath of a rather spectacular car accident.
The scene covered one entire side of the school. Apparently, the vehicle was launched at the corner of 7th and Highland avenues, landed halfway down the school’s roof, rolled off and came to rest in a play area at the end of the building.
Thought to be traveling at an extremely high speed, the vehicle hit the corner and was launched from this hill.
“The vehicle left the road and became airborne, flew through tree branches and reached its point of impact on the school’s roof, 88 feet away,” said Assistant Police Chief Brad Doney, of Lewistown. “Branches were broken on the tree, with the highest broken at 15 feet off the ground. The point of impact on the roof is 11 feet, 8 inches. The vehicle then rolled and came to rest on the ground another 50 feet away.”
At the scene, heavy skid marks on the sidewalk and in a small hill marked the vehicle’s launch point. Broken tree branches littered a path on the lawn leading to the point of demolition in the school’s roof and wall. The vehicle, looking more like a crushed pop can, rested on its wheels in a playground beyond the building, amidst a pile of concrete rubble that the impact sent flying.
A citizen report of the accident was logged by police dispatch at 12:15 a.m. Friday. The three police officers on patrol responded to the scene, along with Lewistown Fire-Rescue and Central Montana Medical Center Ambulance Service.
“There was one vehicle involved, a white 1991 Ford Explorer,” said Doney. “The driver was a 21-year-old male and the only occupant. He was transported to the hospital.” Officers at the scene Friday morning said they believed the driver would be OK.
As of Friday afternoon the cause of the accident was still under investigation. Doney said the investigation would be completed by Monday and it was likely that charges would be filed against the driver, since it appeared that excessive speed and alcohol were involved in the crash. Doney told the News-Argus he could not release the name of the driver until formal charges were filed. A friend of the driver’s family identified him as Willie Gumeson. A phone call confirmed Gumeson was in acute care at CMMC on Friday.

The Dukes of Hazzard have nothing on this guy. I had a few minutes Saturday afternoon before setting up for the street dance so i went by and took pictures. I was standing across the street in someone's yard and i still couldn't get the whole flight path in one frame, so i had to run home and get my wide angle lens. This school is like 9 blocks from my house, and it turns out i met this guy a few hours before this happened. No, i was not involved, and yes, i will tell the whole story tonight.
