ORLANDO, Fla. – An SUV crashed into an Orlando store early Friday after the driver apparently suffered a medical episode, police said.
The crash happened just before 1 a.m. on John Young Parkway near Old Winter Garden Road.
Orlando police said the SUV slammed through the Circle K and ended up in the middle of the store.
"At first, I thought we were getting robbed because when the glass shattered, it made a really loud noise, a Circle K clerk said. "We were waiting for customers and we heard this loud boom, and we saw a car coming through the front door. We were just stunned.”
Police said the driver was taken to a hospital but was expected to be OK.
No one in the store was injured.
