Drunk Driver Smashes into Pennsylvania Store While Texting: Police

Police say a driver was distracted and drunk when she slammed her car into a central Pennsylvania antique shop and pinned a customer against a wall.

Police tell WNEP-TV Brooke Sechrist was sending text messages when she crashed Saturday morning into Callahan's Antiques in Montoursville.

Police say the customer wasn't badly hurt. They say Sechrist kicked an officer between the legs while trying to get away.

Charges against Sechrist are pending. Information on a lawyer to comment on the charges was not immediately available.
