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."
