    SPARTANBURG, South Carolina (WYFF) — Police were called to a bank in Spartanburg, South Carolina, Tuesday after an SUV crashed into the building.

Shortly before 5 p.m. Tuesday, June 23, officers with the Spartanburg Police Department along with personnel with the Spartanburg Fire Department were called after a vehicle crashed into the Bank of America at 1535 John B. White Sr. Blvd.

When first responders arrived, they found a blue 2018 Subaru 4-door SUV partially inside the bank near the drive-thru area.

According to police, the driver said that she was at the ATM when she mistakenly pressed the accelerator instead of the brake pedal. The vehicle then accelerated into the bank building.

Officers said the collision did not result in any major injuries; however, the building did sustain major damage.

We are told that the driver was not cited but was determined to be “at fault” for the collision.
