"I'm a bit traumatized," said Jennifer Lu, one of the homeowners impacted by the crash. "Luckily my kids weren't here, but my father was here. Luckily he was downstairs and not upstairs when this happened. But I'm just a little bit in shock."

Aerial footage from NBC Bay Area SkyRanger shows the aftermath of a cement truck crashing into a home in Daly City.

Neighbors said the truck owned by Half Moon Bay Building and Garden company was a multiplex site up the street on Shipley Avenue when the truck, apparently unoccupied, rolled down the hill and into two houses.

Workers were seen trying to stabilize Lu's home and remove the cement truck.

Daly City police and North County Fire Department have not released any details. The truck company on Friday said it was not commenting at this time.

"Nobody got hurt, which is the good part," Lu said. "But our home is gone, which we can't live in and we don't even know when we can live in it now."
