Neighbours catch hoon teens who smashed car into front of house

A Gold Coast family has had a very lucky escape after two 16-year-old boys smashed into the front of their house in a out-of-control car.

The teens were doing burnouts and came around a roundabout at a fast speed, losing control.

The sheer force of the impact took out a concrete pillar and caused damage to the roof of the house.

Locals were forced to run down the two 16-year-olds after they caused the extensive damage last night.

"We heard them drifting around the roundabout... running up the road," a neighbour told Sunrise.


The two young boys been arrested.

Police will allege they were joyriding when the driver crashed through a fence and into a home at Pacific Pines.

Neighbours chased down the young driver.

He is set to face court next year.
