The car went all the way into the store.

It happened just before 10 a.m. at Sageglen and Sagehollow in southeast Houston.

The 77-year-old driver ran her car into Triple R Fabricators.

Houston police said two people were transported to Southwest Memorial Hermann with lacerations.

The driver was taken to the hospital by a family member to get checked out but seemed to be all right.

A woman working next door saw what happened.

"The car flew through the window... We heard a big crash, a lady screamed," witness Dixie King said. "We all ran to the door. We didn't really know what happened."

One man ended up on the hood of the car and two other people in the store were hurt.

The driver wasn't injured.
