The Dade City Police Department said the van crashed all the way into the store.

DADE CITY, Fla. — Police are trying to figure out what led up to a woman crashing into a Publix Liquors store.

It happened just before 2 p.m. Saturday at the shopping center at 11798 U.S. Highway 301, according to a Dade City Police Department news release.

Police said the van made its way inside -- about 28 feet into the building.

Two people were hurt, including a male employee who suffered from upper-body injuries, and a female customer who was hit possibly by glass and debris, according to Dade City police.
