The driver was a 75-year old woman from Springfield, who apparently got confused and jammed on the accelerator rather than the brakes. According to police spokesperson Lucy Caldwell, she wasn’t under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Chu was working in the back of the store and heard the crash but didn’t see the accident. The bakery is heavily damaged and is not expected to reopen for some time.
