A car has gone crashing into an alterations shop in Adelaide, with witnesses hailing it a "miracle" that no one was injured.

Emergency crews were called to George Street in Norwood about 11.30am today.

CCTV captured the silver Toyota making a U-turn and swiping three cars before driving onto a footpath on the opposite side of the road.

The car was seen knocking over a street sign and narrowly avoiding two women before it crashed into the alterations shop.

"Very loud, very loud," witness Sue Duong said.

Witnesses rushed to help the driver, a 46-year-old man from Kent Town, and called for help.

Firefighters worked to free the man, and the car was later towed away. 

The driver was treated at the scene for minor injuries and fined for the crash.

The shop owner told 9News he was inside at the time, but was luckily in the back corner of the store.

"It's a miracle no one was hit," Duong said.

Yesterday, he posted a video jumping out of a boat in the waters near Cape York and approaching a sunbathing freshwater crocodile.

He wrestled the two-metre reptile out of the water and held it up by its throat for the camera.

"Take a look," he said, with a gash on his arm that was bleeding. 

"You got a good piece of my arm there.

"This is what dreams are made of. Ever since a kid, I wanted to come to Australia and just look at crocodiles."

The Department of Environment said it is taking the matter seriously and is investigating.

Holston, who once said Steve Irwin was his idol growing up, could face a $3000 fine.

A terrified family say they have been forced to move after a masked group fired shots into their home in south-west Melbourne.

Three people, armed with a machete, gun and what appeared to be a hammer, smashed through the windows of a home on Powlett Street in Werribee about 9pm yesterday.

CCTV showed them firing shots into the home, one of which narrowly missed a 23-year-old man who was asleep in his bedroom.

The trio then made their way into their silver sedan and fled the scene.

Inside the home, the family of six hid in their bathroom. The entire ordeal played out in less than a minute. 

9News understands a teenage boy living at the home was the target. 

Neighbours who heard the commotion said they were left terrified.

"When hearing this sort of stuff goes on in your local neighbourhood, you're petrified about it," Earle Boulter said.

"I was actually pretty scared to be fair. I've never been around violence or anything, so it's a wake-up call," Caleb Vincent said.

The family has lived at the home for five years but are now too scared to stay there.

They said they will be moving out.

The trio remain on the run as police investigate.
