Police are investigating after a car crashes into a house in Davie.

The homeowner, Perla McMasters, said she was in her home office when the Hyundai came barreling through.

"I thought it was a bomb really," McMasters said. "The car was in the house, it was nerve wracking because the top had been sheered off, so I just called 911 immediately."

Witnesses said the driver may have had a medical issue and blacked out, losing control of the car.

Police are investigating the crash and fire rescue crews were evaluating the damage to the home, officials said.
