Driver crashes vehicle into perfume store in Miami

MIAMI – Surveillance cameras were rolling when a woman drove her car into a Miami storefront.

Video obtained Tuesday by Local 10 News shows the driver accelerating in reverse, knocking down a concrete barrier post before crashing into the store.

It happened at Perfumes 4 U, located along Northwest 20th Street near 17th Avenue.

After backing into the store, the driver then launched forward, hitting a pole and coming to a stop in the street.

Another view from inside the store shows the moment the car crashed through the front doors, plowing through suitcases.

The owner of the store told Local 10 News the driver was an elderly woman who waited for police to arrive.

It appears no one was injured.
