A teenager died after he crashed his car while trying to flee officers in Massachusetts - smashing into the side of a property.
The 19-year-old man was going so fast that the engine of his 2011 Nissan Altima flew through the second floor of the home in Belchertown, Massachusetts, on Sunday night.
Officers attempted to stop the vehicle at around 8.45pm when they spotted the car speeding down Route 202 South.
The driver sped away from the trooper, running a red light at an intersection before careering off the side of the road, according to Massachusetts State Police.
Investigations by state cops show that the car then flew off the curb before hitting a rock wall and a tree.

It smashed into a light post, a property on North Main Street and then careered into the front end of a 2023 Jeep Wrangler.
A 2020 Buick Envision was also damaged.
The engine was launched out of the vehicle and went through the outside of a neighboring house on North Main Street before landing on the second floor of the home.
Police are not identifying the diver, who was thrown from the car and pronounced dead on the scene.

Neighbors described the crash to WWLP-22 as the 'loudest sound' they had ever heard.
Mike Forgue added: 'It was a loud sound. It was kind of amazing, actually. You could tell something serious had happened.'
Other locals claimed that speeding around the bend of the road is a big issue, but nothing as large as the fatal Sunday night collision.

A fund has been set up for the owner of the property hit by the engine, which has since been condemned.
The fundraiser said the engine smashed through the bathroom of the house and caused a large crack.
