SAN DIMAS, Calif. (KABC) --
Four children were injured after a vehicle plowed through a Party City story in San Dimas on Saturday.

A 35-year-old woman lost control of her Mercedes-Benz C250 around 12:05 p.m., went over the curb and sidewalk, and crashed through a glass window at the store, located in the 800 block of W. Arrow Highway, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

Witnesses said the store was packed with customers shopping for Halloween.

There were fears that people may have been trapped underneath the car. Witnesses rushed over, but no one was under the vehicle.

Customers said it was absolute terror.

"Glass shattering noises and then the wall started moving, and then actually all the helium tanks started going off because that's where you fill up the helium right there," Daren Graves said. "Balloons and metal debris, everything was just flying."

"She said her foot got stuck on the pedal, and she said she couldn't get it off," Albert Beltran said.

Three of the children suffered minor injuries and were treated at the scene. A 14-year-old girl momentarily lost consciousness and complained of leg pain, sheriff's officials said. She was airlifted to Los Angeles County+USC Medical Center.

Witnesses said they saw a father holding a baby who suffered two deep cuts to his face.

The driver has not been arrested as the investigation into the cause of the crash continues.

The aliens have taken over our automobiles with HARP technology and begun to implement the New World Order by decreasing the bottom-feeding population through, seemingly, random "car accidents".

And by lost control they mean checking her phone.
Purely an assumption by me, but I feel like there is a good chance of it.

Seriously tho... what is up with this?!

Just strange it was a "party city" store full of people.

Maybe a coincidence.

Ya I think it is most likely a coincidence, I get the implication but just think the simpler answer is that she lost control until we get more info.

I remember the party city in my home town was on the out skirts of the mall right off the main road.
Sounds like it could be case like that.

How do you get your foot stuck on the pedal and then aren't able to get your foot off?

I was driving a stick while wearing a pair of Dingo boots something like this:



When I stepped on the clutch pedal, the ring on my boot got caught under the brake pedal and I had to pull my foot out of the boot to free it.

I suppose something like that could have happened, but still it's an unfortunate incident no matter how it happened.

That is pretty scary!

Yes, very unfortunate accident!

Where are "Bill and Ted"? Those guys have San Dimas wired...

Maybe So Crates is playing games again?

Yes I agree how can you get your foot stuck on the pedal. If that was the case it would be a hazard for every person who drove.
