A blue Honda Pilot drove itself into the glass entrance of a business today after good Samaritans pulled the driver out following a crash.
The SUV was probably still in gear after employees of All Tune and Lube on West 29th Avenue and Zuni Street helped the woman out of the Pilot, police and witnesses said.
The crash happened before 3 p.m. in the intersection when the SUV and an ASA Electric van collided.
T.S. Stern, a Denver officer who was on the scene, said someone ran a red light, but he did not say if it was the driver of the van or SUV who was at fault.
After the accident, the van and SUV came a rest in the intersection. Moments after the wreck, the driver of the SUV was pulled from the vehicle, it drove forward into the auto business, shattering glass and bringing in a street light with it.
“The vehicle moved and everybody started screaming and ran,” said April Stuehm, a service writer at All Tune and Lube.
An office manager at the business was hit in the head by a beam, but was not seriously injured, Stuehm said.
The occupants and drivers of both the SUV and the van also did not appear to be injured.
