SPRING, Texas (KTRK) -- An alleged drunk driver is facing charges after she plowed a car into a home in Spring.

Britoni Colbert was charged with DWI after she crashed her car, coming just mere inches from a baby's bed at a home on Cottonshire Drive in northwest Harris County.

What's even more frightening is the 1-year-old girl and her mother were there when the car came through the wall.

They were not hurt, but the house was left with significant damage.

Colbert was accused of leaving the scene in the crashed car before returning on her own.
