According the Florida Highway Patrol, Thelma Wagenhoffer drove her car into the store and injured 10 people, including a 3-month-old girl. Eight of the 10 people suffered minor injuries. Two elderly individuals – an 83-year-old man and an 81-year-old woman – were listed in serious condition in local hospitals.
The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office says Wagenhoffer was pulling up to a stop sign in front of the store when she pressed the gas pedal rather than the break pedal. The Florida Highway Patrol said the accident wasn’t caused by mechanical failure.
