Annie Burrell describes the moment a van ended up on her kitchen worktop
A woman in her 70s has described how she was knocked out of her chair on to the floor when a van crashed through the wall of her County Down home.
"When I looked up I could see the front of the van on my workbench," said Annie Burrell.
It happened at Clare Road, Waringstown, shortly after 21:00 GMT on Sunday. The car ended up in her kitchen.

The van crashed right through the kitchen window
Ms Burrell was treated for shock and minor injuries caused by glass. A man has been charged with driving offences.
The 27-year-old driver is due to appear in court on Tuesday, accused of dangerous driving, driving with excess alcohol in his breath and failing to remain at the scene of a collision.
'Loud bang'
Ms Burrell said was sitting in a chair in when "all of a sudden my back window came in".

Ms Burrell said she heard a loud bang as the van plunged into her home
"There was a loud bang, maybe with the window breaking and I was knocked out of my chair onto the floor," she said.
"The water was running all over the floor."
She added: "I was concerned about whoever was in the van and whether they were badly hurt."

The van had careered through a fence and the garden before coming to a halt inside the building
Ms Burrell said she had been very frightened and felt "total disbelief" at what had happened.
But she added: "It could have been a lot worse."
Democratic Unionist Party MLA Carla Lockhart said: "I know this lady well and to see the pictures does bring home how shocking it was.
"It is fortunate this morning that we are not dealing with a fatality."
