CHILLIWACK — A local resident is asking for help after her family’s home set ablaze in a car crash this week.

On Tuesday, June 16, at around 1:45 a.m., a car flew through Lexi Hamilton’s bedroom wall, nearly hitting her. 

The vehicle then exploded and lit up the rental house, destroying hers and another family’s homes. Alcohol was deemed a factor in that crash.
