A BMW was caught on camera crashing into a Half Moon Bay home before the driver fled.

Hodge was out of the country and got word of the accident from neighbors. He went online and saw the video.

Hodge estimates the crash caused $100,000 damage to the house and a car and other items.

He said the car, which he believes to be a 2000 to 2002, BMW Z3 Coupe, will be easy to find, claiming there are only a couple of them registered within a 100-mile radius of Half Moon Bay.

Anyone with any information on the crash is asked to call the California Highway Patrol.
