SAYS THE WOMAN
WHO CRASHED
HER HONDA CIVIC
INTO ONE OF THE

AN APPOINTMENT.

she was trying to
avoid something in
the parking lot and
accidentally hit her
gas pedal as
opposed to the
brake. And I think
naturally noticed
that she wasn't
slowing down, so
she hit the pedal
harder.
STATE POLICE AS
WELL AS FIRE
AND EMS CREWS
REPSONDED.
LUCKILY NO ONE
AS HURT.
