A stolen car crashed through an iron fence and rolled over in the front lawn of a Bronzeville neighborhood home early Thursday on the South Side.

The car was travelling northbound in the 4100 block of South Cottage Grove Avenue about 12:15 a.m. when it lost control, hit an iron fence and flipped over, police News Affairs Officer Ronald Gaines said.

The car had previously been reported stolen, Gaines said. It was unoccupied when officers arrived at the scene.

No injuries were reported in the crash, Gaines said.
