A woman has died after her car crashed into her house in western Sydney.

The woman was with three others at a house on Monferville Street in St. Mary’s when the crash occurred around 5:20 am on Saturday.

The vehicle was found parked in the backyard, suggesting it had driven right into the front right before completely crashing through the house.

Police urged anyone with information or video of the incident to come forward.
