Four people, including a woman who is 5-months pregnant, were hurt after a stolen SUV crashed into a deli in Philadelphia Tuesday night, investigators said.
An 18-year-old suspect was driving a 2017 Nissan Pathfinder Tuesday that had been stolen in Philadelphia Monday. The suspect was driving about 100 mph northbound on Frankford Avenue around 7:30 p.m. when he suddenly lost control of the vehicle, investigators said. He crashed into several other cars before slamming into the Frankford Deli at Frankford Avenue and Tioga Street.
Four people, including a 19-year-old woman who is 5-months pregnant, were inside the deli during the crash. She and other employees dived behind a counter to avoid being hit, police said.
All four were taken to the hospital. Their injuries don’t appear to be life-threatening, police said.
