BEVERLY (CBS) – Police are searching for the driver of a tractor-trailer that crashed into a Beverly home, leaving a gaping hole in the residents' family room.
A family of four in the Roundy Street house was awoken by a loud noise around 1:15 a.m. Thursday.

Jalli said he had seen the truck parked on Roundy Street all day. After the crash, Jalli took off trying to find the driver but could not locate them.
Beverly Police said they are still searching for the driver, who they have identified as Samuel Felder, 24, of Valdosta, Georgia.
Felder remains at large and charges are pending against him.
