PHOTO: Luckily no one was seriously injured when a wrong-way driver sent a semi into a Spanaway home Friday morning, narrowly missing a sleeping couple. It was around 3 a.m. when a pickup driver was heading the wrong way on Spanaway Loop Road and approached a northbound semi, according to Det. Sgt. Gary Sanders with the Pierce County Sheriff's Department. The semi struck the pickup, and then the impact sent the semi off the road where it crashed into a home. Another vehicle behind the semi then struck the pickup. An off-duty police officer was the first on the scene and rendered help until other units could arrive.
