Written by City News Service - A man who claimed he fell asleep while driving
struck a fire hydrant near his Boyle Heights home and set off a chain reaction
that damaged a neighbor's car and another neighbor's house, a Los Angeles
police traffic officer said today.
   The first accident occurred at about 11:30 p.m. Sunday at State and 2nd
streets, said Officer Greg McMillan of the Los Angeles Police Department
Central Traffic Division.
   The man fell asleep, said McMillan. ``That's what he told us. Then he
hit his neighbor's car, and his neighbor's car deflected and hit another
neighbor's house where there's stucco damage.''
   There was some damage to the sleepy driver's car and the neighbor's car,
McMillan said. The fire hydrant broke away and water shot into the air until
the fire department shut it off.
   The motorist got a citation for ``sleepy driving,'' he said. The
neighbors whose car and house were damaged took it in stride.
   ``They all acted neighborly,'' McMillan said. LOUDLABS NEWS
