Hunter and Jenna Perrin were in their home in Temecula--a city south of Los Angeles--when they received an automatic notification from their security camera system. This was followed by a knock on the door. NBC 4 News reports that a hot air balloon with thirteen people had landed in the small backyard of the suburban home.
The pilot had determined that the balloon was about to run out of fuel and had to make an emergency landing. He achieved an ideal landing, as the balloon didn't hit the house, any trees, or the fence. In fact, there was no property damage at all and no injuries.

When I had a house on ten acres with one neighbor having 20 acres and the other one on the other side of my home had ten acres. Lots of flat farm land and lots of trees, too. One day we had a hot air balloon sink down onto my back yard. Having a 600 foot driveway was a big help for the trackers to retrieve the balloon and it's inhabitants.
