PEABODY, Mass. (AP) - Officials say five people were injured
when a car driven by a 69-year-old woman crashed into the reception
area of a medical office building in Peabody.

Police said the driver, Liduina Goulart of Peabody, was taken to
a hospital along with a passenger and three people who were inside
the Internal Medicine Physicians of the North Shore building.

Capt. Dennis Boniuto (Baw-nah-YOO'-toh) said the injuries did
not appear to be life-threatening and that at least one victim had
already been released from the hospital.

Boniuto says the vehicle had pulled up in front of the building,
then accelerated and crashed into the glass facade.

Boniuto says damage to the building was extensive. He says the
accident remains under investigation to determine if any charges
are warranted.
