Police: Car Slams Into Athletic Equipment Store In Woodbury
WOODBURY, Minn. (WCCO) -- A teenage driver slammed into a Woodbury sporting goods store Sunday afternoon with a pick-up truck and at least three shoppers were injured, according to police.
Authorities say a 16-year old driver somehow drove through the front of Play it Again Sports at about 1:30 p.m. Officers say there were several employees and shoppers inside the store at the time of the crash.
The truck was almost entirely inside the store before it was removed. Three shoppers were taken to the hospital with minor injuries.
"The driver of the vehicle was a newly-permitted driver, still looking into what exactly happened but it may have just been some inexperience that came into play when the crash occurred," Sgt. Neil Bauer with the Woodbury Police Department said.
Authorities have not said if any charges will be filed against the driver.
