UPDATE: Elderly Woman Literally Drives Through Glendora Ice Cream Parlor

Updated at 5:38 p.m.:

A 71-year-old woman in a Chevrolet Camaro escaped injury Friday when she braked to avoid rear-ending another vehicle, swerved, clipped a vehicle, then smashed through the plate glass window of Baskin Robbins.

According to Glendora police Lt. James DeMonde, the woman slammed her brakes in order to avoid hitting a vehicle that had stopped suddenly on Route 66.

No one was cited and no customers were in the store when the 3:30 p.m. crash occurred, the lieutenant told Patch over the telephone.
