SUV Slams Into University of Pittsburgh Bookstore

A two-vehicle crash sent a sport utility vehicle into the University of Pittsburgh bookstore, injuring three people, said authorities in western Pennsylvania.

Allegheny County 911 supervisors told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that the accident happened at about 7:30 p.m. Saturday on Fifth street.

Public Safety spokeswoman said medics transported three patients to UPMC Presbyterian with minor injuries. Toler said the 22-year-old driver fled the scene on foot but eventually returned.

University spokesman Joe Miksch said city police were handling the investigation and none of the people involved appeared to be affiliated with the university.

The extent of damage to university property wasn't immediately clear.
