Sprignfield residents looked out the window last night to see a bright orange garbage truck moving so quickly that it nearly tipped over on a tight curve.
The driver avoided that, but crashed into a large tree in her yard, shoved a parked car into the roadway and then continued down the block.
Before the rampage was over, the truck , stolen from a disposal company in nearby Springfield , was used to demolish fences and smash three cars. It hit a utility pole, knocking out electricity to a few homes. It uprooted a large tree and dragged it for about a block, scattering branches and parts of the trunk along the road.
The truck was found abandoned about 9 p.m. Sunday.
Police said they have no suspects.
