A car crashed into an elderly couple's home early Thursday morning while they were asleep.

It happened near North Walnut and East Gowan roads.

The driver left the scene after leaving a huge hole in the couple's home.

"We just heard a big bang," says the homeowner, Nenita Sevilla.  "We thought it was an earthquake." 

"The whole house shook," says the homeowner's sister in law, Teresa Sevilla.

The homeowners are now hoping that one small piece of evidence left behind, could help catch the person responsible.  What appears to be a part of the car's side panel was left at the scene after the crash.  It shows the car may be a gold Honda.  

The police are now looking for the driver. 

This is a developing story.
