According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the crash happened around 3:47 p.m. in the parking lot of 683 Alderman Road when the driver, a 76-year-old Tarpon Springs man, accidentally accelerated and lost control of the vehicle.

Vicki “Diane” Cooper told WFLA she was at the fitness center next door when she was pushed into her desk.
“I was in my office, sitting at my desk, and we heard a very large — sounded like an explosion,” she said. “The truck had actually come through this wall — my office is at the corner — so it hit my wall, broke the wall, and pushed me into my desk.”
No other details were immediately available.
