Car crashes through Arizona home as couple was about to sit for dinner

An Arizona couple and their four dogs all survived when a Ford Mustang crashed through their living room just as they were about to sit down for dinner.

Marcus Holmberg and Sabrina Rivera suffered cuts and minor injuries when the car smashed through their living room around 10:30 p.m. Friday night, Phoenix police said.

Holmberg and Rivera shared video showing the moment the Mustang crashed through the exterior wall and created a cloud of dust and debris.

“It was like a bomb went off,” Holmberg told local 12News. “It comes smashing in and just it’s there. It happened so quick. It was so explosive.”

Crews put out a house fire in Ventura that killed one dog and two pet birds Saturday.

The Ventura City Fire Department said 41 on-scene personnel responded to a structure fire on the 1300 block of Clay Avenue at 1:58 p.m.

Firefighters arrived within four minutes of the call to find a single-family home engulfed in flames coming from the garage and spreading into the rest of the residence.

Officials said a family was inside when the fire first broke out in the garage. All members were able to evacuate safely, but, unfortunately, they were unable to retrieve their pets.

However, firefighters quickly and aggressively attacked the flames and were able to save two dogs. Crews also managed to stop the fire from further damaging the home, putting out the fire by 4:17 p.m.
