Police say the cause appears to be driver confusion.

The Jeep was parked outside around 2 p.m. when the driver put it in drive rather than reverse.

Witness Jenny Tatusko heard the loud crash.

"We thought it was a bomb, that's how loud it shook the whole place," she said. "It was oof, nerve-wracking. I feel bad for them."

The two workers who were hurt suffered minor injuries.
