3 hospitalized after car crashes into pizzeria in West Babylon

WEST BABYLON, Long Island (WABC) -- Three people were hospitalized after a car crashed into a Long Island pizzeria Sunday morning.

Suffolk County Police say a 66-year-old woman was driving a Mercury Grand Marquis eastbound on Herzel Boulevard in West Babylon at about 11:30 a.m. when she stepped on the gas pedal instead of the brake pedal.

The car then struck another car, driven by a man, at the intersection of Little East Neck Road.

The Marquis crashed into Giovanni's Pizza. Neither driver was injured.

A female employee was taken to the hospital because the Marquis ran over her foot, police said.

Two other people inside the pizzeria were taken to the hospital for evaluation.
