PALM HARBOR, Fla. (WFLA) — A Ford F-150 crashed into a Palm Harbor hair salon on Wednesday, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The crash happened around 3:47 p.m. in the parking lot of 683 Alderman Road, officials said.
While maneuvering in the lot, the driver, a 76-year-old Tarpon Springs man, accidentally accelerated and lost control of the vehicle, according to FHP. He traveled forward and hit a building with a gym and a hair salon.
The driver was removed from the truck, officials said. No one was taken to a hospital.
The front of the salon is damaged as well as a wall between the salon and a fitness center, according to officials. The building is secure.
Vicki “Diane” Cooper was next door at the fitness center and said she was pushed into her desk.
“I was in my office, sitting at my desk, and we heard a very large — sounded like an explosion,” she said. “The truck had actually come through this wall — my office is at the corner — so it hit my wall, broke the wall, and pushed me into my desk.”
No other details were immediately available.
