Default curb check

So I was driving through my neighborhood a few days ago with lots of snow on the road, not really playing around....maybe a little. But anywayz I slammed my Right Rear wheel into a curb. My "anti lock" brake light came on immediately and I've been hearing a very unusual humming sound coming from the rear of the car. When I make a left turn, which puts pressure on the right rear wheel the noise gets louder. I just haven't gotten around to getting it checked out by Mitsu yet but was just wondering if anyone had something similar happen?

Oh dear God. Step away from the car!

It could be any number of things.

The humming could be because the hub is off and the wheel is now not sitting straight causing it to drag and producing a humming. Could also be in the drivetrain.... and that could be costly.
