BROWNSVILLE, Minn. -- Several large boulders crashed into a home north of Brownsville, Minnesota, after a landslide Wednesday that was triggered by heavy rains. 
 
Homeowner Tom Bjerke and his wife awoke to a huge crash.
 
"It sounded like a freight train going through the house," Bjerke said.
 
Bjerke says he feels lucky the damage wasn't worse considering the size of the boulder.
