Shoreline firefighters and paramedics responded to a multiple victim, car-into-building incident today at the Jo-Ann Fabric parking lot, 155th and Aurora Avenue North.
Three elderly females were in a four-door compact vehicle when the driver apparently lost control and hit the front of the building at about 1:45 p.m.

There was no major structural damage to the building and the windows were not broken.
The front seat passenger suffered fatal injuries. The driver and a backseat passenger were transported to Harborview Trauma Center with life threatening injuries.
King County Sheriff Office traffic investigators are looking into exactly what happened. They told fire officials it appears to be a case of the driver mistaking the gas pedal for the brake.
