The commotion had started seconds earlier when fire rescue said the driver had left her home down the block, crashed through her neighbor's fence and damaged a work van.
She sped off, lost control of her jeep on a curve in the road and slammed into the house
The house is an Airbnb rental. The owner Jhonny Ahrma says tenants had left Sunday
"Thank God no one was inside. We will fix It up and continue," said Ahrma.
Police are piecing together the accident and will decide if the driver will be cited.
