From Staff and Wire Reports

A Florida couple was having dinner when a bulldozer rumbled into their home and tore the ceiling down. The bulldozer operator had the wrong address, officials said.

Yesenia Reyes and her husband were eating in the kitchen of their rented Hollywood home when the bulldozer roared up and began a demolition job. Their three children were away at the time.

The Reyeses bounded for their door and yelled at the operator, stopping him in time to leave part of the roof intact.

The president of Zara Inc., the private contractor that employed the operator, said his company would repair the damage, estimated by Hollywood Fire-Rescue officials at $5,000.
