An elderly person crashed a Lincoln Town Car into the Lincoln Park Apple Store earlier this evening, reports the Chicago Tribune.

Fire Department paramedics were called to the store at 801 W. North Ave. at about 6:30 p.m. this evening, said Chicago Fire Department Spokesman Joseph Roccasalva. Chicago police were on the scene and investigating the crash, said Chicago News Affairs Officer Joshua Purkiss. The driver was described as elderly, he said.

The dark-colored sedan drove through the glass walls and made it about four or five feet inside, where it seemed to turn and rested near display cases holding headphones and other accessories, according to witnesses. There were shards of glass strewn on the ground from the impact, according to witnesses.



One person was taken to hospital but their condition was described as good.

It's unclear if the store will be open tomorrow.
