NEW BERLIN, WI : 36-year-old man died after crashing his car into New Berlin church on Tuesday, 11th June 2019

A New Berlin man, 36, died after crashing his car into Living Word Apostolic Church in New Berlin Tuesday, June 11. Police said they weren't sure what caused the car to speed off the road -- and into the side of the building."When it happened, it sounded like a large clap of thunder," said Pastor David Meyer. "I got the call about 4 o'clock."

Pastor Meyer said his secretary thought a storm may have damaged the building, but the reality was far more horrifying.

"All the fire department, a lot of fire department trucks were here -- and a lot of police," Pastor Meyer said. "When I got right up to where it was, they were working on the man that they took out. They were doing CPR -- and it wasn't a very good sight."
