Cleveland Hts. mayor says no to guardrail in front of home prone to car crashes

It’s a story we’ve been following for years, and now it’s taken social media by storm.

At the intersection of South Taylor Road and Fairmount Boulevard in Cleveland Heights sits a house where John Gall calls home. He’s owned the property since the late 1990s.

In the past decade, Gall said three cars have crashed into his home.

“Well, the first crash actually took out my pickup truck that was parked in the driveway. I believe that was 2012,” Gall previously told News 5.

The second crash occurred in 2021 when News 5 covered a police chase that ended with a car crashing into Gall’s kitchen. Then, in 2022, another crash took out his garage. The latest crash, in 2023, landed on the lawn but narrowly missed the house.

Gall has been begging for the installment of a guardrail with each crash.
