A 20-year-old man was killed when a car crashed into a home in Orange County Saturday, police said.
The driver of the vehicle, Isaac Hernandez Lazaro, 20, was killed in the crash, the Tustin Police Department said.
The crash happened around 2:30 a.m. when a white sedan crashed through a cinderblock wall into the middle of the home near Sun Juan St. and Browning Avenue. Debris from the crash flew over 70 feet and across the house.
According to the homeowner, his 16-year-old daughter and her three friends were having a sleepover in the living room when the car crashed into the home. The debris from the crash landed inches from the girls' heads.
"We're just so thankful," said Tito Perez. "I don't know why this had to happen, but it doesn't matter. I'm alive; I have my family."
Perez, his wife and his other 18-year-old daughter were sleeping upstairs during the crash. Some of the people inside the home suffered minor injuries from flying debris, but no one inside the home was taken to the hospital.
