A homeowner says he is lucky to be alive after a car smashed into his house on Old Town Road in Bridgeport on Thursday.
Oscar Raposo says he was with his wife in their bedroom when a Ford Mustang crashed through his living room window.
No one was injured, but police say the impact was so powerful that it caused structural damage to the home.
The couple is still living inside with the front of the house boarded up and a dumpster out front filled with debris.
Raposo says the driver told him he swerved to avoid a dog in the road and was not speeding.
Police say no charges have been filed and the case remains under investigation.
