It can be seen in the video that the vehicle smashed through the wall of the living room as the couple, identified as Marcus Holmberg and Sabrina Rivera, prepared to eat dinner on their couch.

The couple and their four dogs were present at home when the incident occurred. Fortunately, the couple and their dogs narrowly escaped death as the car crashed into their home after smashing through the wall of their living room.

Holmberg and Rivera were left shocked while people were amazed to see that the couple escaped the horrific accident with minor injuries only.

Rivera recounted the incident to Storyful, mentioning that both she and her partner sustained minor injuries, and fortunately, their four dogs, who were also in the room at the time, escaped without any apparent harm. “They are sore and scared. No injuries were found, but a vet visit will be necessary once we can afford it,” she said, highlighting the emotional and financial strain the event has caused.

The crash caused significant damage to their home, with Rivera noting, “The incident destroyed everything”. In response to the destruction, the couple has launched a GoFundMe campaign to help cover the cost of repairs.

Phoenix police reported that the driver, an 18-year-old, was arrested at the scene. They believe that the driver, who was performing reckless stunts such as “donuts” outside the house, was driving under the influence.

Despite the traumatic event, the couple was grateful that their dogs were unharmed. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of impaired and reckless driving.
