The comments on her post are flooded with how crazy the accident seems. One person wrote, "Glad you took pictures otherwise no one would believe you. So glad you two are okay." Another called it "terrifying." Well, from the pictures it does look scary! Talking about the incident Lark was quoted to CNN, "I told my brother, 'Oh my God there's a brick flying across the highway.' No sooner than I said that, it impacted my vehicle. It scared me so bad, it sounded like a bomb went off and glass went all over my brother."
The turtle was taken to animal care but it lost its leg. When Lark called to check up on it again, she was informed that it passed away. The siblings suspect, that the poor creature could have been struck by some vehicle on the other side, which made it soar in air with impact. People on Facebook commented it could be dropped by a bird of prey. We have heard of many bizarre accidents, but one with turtle crashing through the glass window, that's a rare!
