The vehicle jumped a curb and went through the glass front of the store.

One witness described the scene.

"He pulled into the spot, all of a sudden I guess he hit the gas pedal instead of the brake and he flew right into the store," said Hannah Mania. "I had to dive out of the way, he almost hit me. And then whoever it was proceeded to try to reverse out of the building, not even knowing who could possibly be behind the car, under the car."
