VIDEO: Car smashes into Goodwill store
Terrified customers dashed for cover when this car went flying through a Goodwill store

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Surveillance video captured some incredible footage of a car crashing into a Goodwill store in southwest Houston.

It happened Monday night around closing time at the Goodwill located at Hillcroft and Beltway 8.

After the SUV came to a stop, the driver was pulled out of the car. Workers say the elderly driver mistakenly hit the gas instead of the brakes.

"It was just a freak accident," one witness said.

We're told two employees were checked out and released. Two customers were also injured, but their status is not known.

Police are saying this was just an accident.
