"Two homes in the US state of Texas were torn down accidentally when the demolition company apparently followed GPS to the wrong address."
"Diaz says the demolition crew, who were still at the site of her home when she arrived, did offer a kind of explanation. One employee told her they had been due to tear down a house at 7601 Cousteau Drive, one street away, but their GPS mapping system had taken them to her home at 7601 Calypso Drive instead. Media reports say a Billy Nabors employee later texted photos from Google Maps showing the arrow pointing to the wrong place."
