PINE HILLS, Fla. — A car crashed into a Chinese restaurant in Pine Hills Tuesday afternoon, according to Orange County Fire Rescue.
The car crashed into the Dragon City Chinese restaurant around 1:30 p.m. in the shopping plaza at 2767 Hiawassee Road near Silver Star Road, dispatch logs show.
Skywitness video shows the car drove right into the restaurant.
An elderly driver crashed into the restaurant, officials said.
Officials said there were four people inside when the Silver Toyota Corolla crashed into the business.
Sharon Nelson, who owns a neighboring laundromat, caught the crash on her surveillance cameras.
"It was not too far from me," she said. "It could have been me."
The elderly driver did not appear to be hurt. A spokesperson for the Florida Highway Patrol said it appears the driver hit the gas rather than the brake.
