Car driven by student crashes into Dyson House room

By James Biscardi

Tyler Karstetter received a 3,000 pound visitor from the parking lot outside his Dyson dorm room on Feb. 9. At 6:38 p.m. a 1997 Chrysler Sebring crashed through the front window of his room.

The driver, Samantha Millman, and a passenger were uninjured and no one in the room was hurt. Karstetter said he was in the bathroom when he heard the sound of breaking glass.

According to a Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department report, Millman “attempted to back up, however the vehicle lurched forward, and before she could step on the brake, her car was inside the residence.”
