ENGLEWOOD, Colo. - The Stone Creek Café in Englewood is closed after an 80-year-old woman mistakenly drove the wrong direction and crashed into the building.

The car didn't appear to penetrate the wall of the building, but police said it did cause enough damage to close the business. Also, an employee inside was hurt and taken to a hospital with serious injuries.

Police said the 80-year-old got in the car and went forward instead of backwards around 11:50 a.m.
