VANCOUVER, Wash. - A steel silo weighing about 15 tons rolled off a flatbed truck in the Vancouver area and landed on top of a parked car.

Another local newsite says that the owners of the Suburu are probably bicyclists who are out biking for the day.

“It is believed the owners of the Subaru are cycling in a wilderness area nearby and had parked their vehicle on the side of the road. They do not yet know their vehicle has been crushed,” Flaherty said.

The flattened car was towed away, leaving debris along the shoulder where it was parked.

1. Damn. I hope they don't live far away, and have their keys with them.
Can you imagine coming back and finding out that you're stranded?
:(
