A neighbor says there were four people inside the car. Two were taken into custody and the other two led police on a foot chase. Those two remain on the loose.
A woman said she was not woken up by the crash, but instead by police banging on her door.
"I'm really shocked. I'm so far from the road, I would never expect a car coming through the back of the house," said the neighbor. "It was pinned in between the deck and the tree. Literally a hair from the house."
