LAWRENCE, Kan., Jan. 21 (UPI) -- Police in Kansas said they arrested a woman accused of intentionally driving her vehicle through a home.

Lawrence police said Megan Wilson, 19, was arrested Wednesday after investigators determined she intentionally drove her vehicle through the home just before 9 a.m. Nov. 18 after arguing with someone inside, the Lawrence Journal-World reported Monday.

Police said about $100,000 worth of damage was caused to the home, but no injuries were reported.

Wilson fled the scene, but was found about a block from the crash and taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for treatment.

Wilson was charged Thursday with criminal damage, which carries a potential penalty of up to 3 years in prison. She was released after posting $7,500 bond.
