A freak accidents sends a man and woman to the hospital

Update:  The couple has been identified as Ivo and Jo Ann Suing from Arizona.  Both stated they were unfamiliar with the vehicle.

Sergeant Doug Klein tells 11-10 KFAB the man was having trouble releasing the parking brake on his SUV in the driveway of his home near 111th and Harney around 2:20. 

Klein says both doors were open when the brake was finally released and the SUV traveled down the driveway and across the street before clipping a neighbors vehicle and house.

They were both thrown from the SUV and suffered serious but non life threatening  injuries.  They were rushed to Nebraska Medical Center. 

Neighbors tell 1110 KFAB the couple was on their way to a wedding.  The incident remains under investigation.
