A car smashed into the front of a laundromat in Brockton, Massachusetts, on Thursday.
No one was hurt when the sedan crashed on Crescent Street by Crescent Avenue around 12:30 p.m., according to police.
The Brockton Fire Department shared an image of a car halfway through a shattered window in the front of the store, having apparently jumped the curb from the parking lot. Police say the 77-year-old driver thought she was in reverse when she hit the gas pedal, accelerating into the building. A bottle had also gotten stuck under the pedal, according to police.
