GARDEN GROVE, Calif. (KABC) -- A Garden Grove woman was killed when a possible DUI driver crashed into her home early Sunday, according to police.

The victim was identified by a longtime friend as 40-year-old Janet Carrillo, a wife and mother of two teenage boys.

Police responded to the 11800 block of Magnolia Street around 2 a.m. after multiple reports of a hit-and-run, according to the Garden Grove Police Department.

When officers arrived, they saw a car had crashed into a residence. The victim was trapped by the car that smashed into her home and she was later pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
