VERMONT (KTRK) -- It was a close call for a family in Vermont after a steel bar flew into their car, just inches away from hitting their 1-year-old.

New photos show where the bar went through the baby's seat while the family was driving on the interstate.

The family says they were driving ahead of a pickup truck when the truck was forced to brake.

A steel bar on the truck's roof slid forward and flew through the car, landing in the child's safety seat.
