BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) - A Baton Rouge middle schooler says she’s doesn’t need any presents this Christmas after what she calls a Christmas miracle.
She’s alive after an accused drunk driver plowed a truck into her bedroom, pinning her mattress under it. It happened around 1:00 Wednesday morning on Woodlawn Ridge, which is just off South Harrell’s Ferry Road.
Sydne Barard says she remembers being in her bed sleeping, but woke up in her yard, thinking there was an earthquake.
