About 2:30 pm Saturday afternoon a driver at the Richmond Beach Rite Aid hit either the wrong gear or the wrong pedal and plowed into the wall of the store.

An employee who was inside at the time said her first thought was that it was an earthquake.

No one was hurt, including the driver, who was reported to be on medication for a serious illness.

The owner was able to get a construction crew to replace the window before the end of the day.
