Man got a rude awakening when car crashed through his bedroom wall

71-year-old Terry Brouillette from Worcester, Massachusetts, was rudely awakened from a sound sleep on Thursday morning when a Subaru Legacy crashed though his bedroom wall.
Fast asleep in his ground-floor apartment, Mr. Brouillette awoke at about 2:30am when a loud boom echoed through his room. Groggy and unsure what happened, he flipped on a light switch. “There was almost a whole car. It's a good thing I have a strong heart,” he said. “I heard a big bang. I jumped up out of bed.”
A car had veered off the street and smashed through a concrete wall and into the house before coming to rest inches from Mr. Brouillette's bed. Police said the car's front wheel was above Mr. Brouillette's bed. “I know my time will come,” he said. “Apparently this wasn't my time.” Police were still investigating how the car jumped the curb and crashed into the side of the multi-apartment building.

Three women and one man were in the car. The driver, identified by police as Jennifer L. Rodriguez, 33, was charged with drunken driving, driving to endanger, unlicensed driving and refusing to identify herself to a police officer. No one in the car was injured, according to police. Ms. Rodriguez was arraigned on Thursday in Central District Court. Judge Jennifer A. Stark set $1,500 cash bail and continued the case to Jan. 8.
