10-year-old girl crashes truck into a family's home, says she wanted to 'kill people'

A 10-year-old girl reportedly told police that she purposely crashed a truck into a Louisville family's home because she wanted to "kill people."

Joshua Pate told WDRB that he had just gotten home Friday afternoon when he heard what sounded like a bomb going off.

Sitting in the middle of the family's living room was a pick-up truck. Behind the wheel was a 10-year-old girl, police said.

Pate said five children were in the living room when the crash happened, but they were not injured.

"The loveseat slid around and made kind of like a barrier," he told the outlet. "The back of (the loveseat) is kind of high and I think the kids just slid with the loveseat."

"Everybody was in shock," Pate added. "Everybody's still in shock."

Pate told WDRB that he heard the young driver talking with police after the crash, and she reportedly said she rammed the vehicle into the home on purpose.

"(The officer) couldn't believe what she said. He was like, 'Excuse me?' and she said, 'I wanted to kill people,' and he said, 'I'm sorry,' what did you say?' and she said, 'I wanted to kill people,'" Pate told the outlet.
