On Saturday morning in St. Louis County, a vehicle crashed into a Golden Corral restaurant, sending four people to the hospital. The incident occurred just after 10:30 a.m. in the 6100 block of South Lindbergh Boulevard, as reported by FOX 2 now. At one point, a police officer saw the vehicle rapidly crashing into the building.

The driver, an adult male, along with three others—two women and a child—who were inside the restaurant at the time of the crash, were taken directly to hospitals. Authorities say their injuries are non-life-threatening.

The driver's motive and condition are still unconfirmed, but more information is expected as the investigation continues, as stated by the First Alert 4.
