    The owner of a home hit by a car in Auckland's Albany - thought it was an earthquake

    The owner of a home hit by a car in Auckland's Albany - thought it was an earthquake



    Police say the car ended stuck over a three-metre drop between the house and a retaining wall on Fairview Avenue, just before 8 last night.

    Ross Cranston says a quiet evening with his two daughters, was shattered by a massive bang, and the house shook.

    He says the car crashed above his daughter's head, with a man still sitting in the car.

    A 44-year-old is due in court - charged with drinking and dangerous driving.
