No Injuries After Car Careens Into Pacoima Restaurant
PACOIMA (CBSLA) – No one was hurt after a car plowed through the front entrance of a Chinese restaurant in a Pacoima strip mall Thursday morning.
The collision occurred before 6:45 a.m. at Wok Express, located at 13035 Van Nuys Blvd. Video from the scene showed the sedan sitting inside the restaurant. The car appeared to have driven through a glass window.
The restaurant is directly across from a Los Angeles Fire Department station, were crews heard the crash and responded.
Firefighters at the scene told CBS2 that a woman was behind the wheel with her husband in the passenger seat when she accidentally put the car in drive and slammed into the restaurant, which was closed at the time. There were no serious injuries.
There was no immediate word on the extent of the damage to the restaurant. It was also unclear when it would be able to reopen.
