Woman Crashes Into Apartment Building

An apartment unit was damaged after the driver of a 2010 Chevrolet Camaro crashed into the unit’s brick exterior early this morning.

Just before 8:00 a.m. this morning, San Angelo Police were dispatched to the Plaza Square Apartments located at 4001 Sul Ross for the report of a single vehicle crash with a building. 

Upon arrival, police located a 28-year-old San Angelo resident who had been operating the Camaro prior to the crash.  The woman, who was not injured in the crash, told police she drove into the parking lot and intended to stop when she became ill and stepped on the gas pedal instead of the brake pedal.  The Camaro then traveled over a retaining wall and into the apartment’s brick exterior.  The apartment unit was unoccupied at the time of the crash. 

A spokesperson for the apartment complex said the estimated damages were approximately $100,000.
