The Redditor noted that a couple of people who sustained light injuries from the shattered glass were being attended to by medical professionals.

“I can personally confirm that the driver was female and young and I heard her say that her foot got caught on the gas and she was mentioning and referring to her heels that at the time were loosely strapped around her foot,” the Reddit user shared.

Both accounts noted that no one was severely hurt in the incident.

According to the Redditor, the bakery continued operating as customers walked in and ordered food, while the car remained inside the store.

Official details about the incident were not immediately available as of this writing.

The 85 Degrees Celsius Bakery Cafe on Alton Parkway in Irvine is the first store the Taiwanese food and beverage chain opened in the U.S.

The chain, which has been dubbed the “Starbucks of Taiwan,” experienced a similar incident in 2017, when a car driven by a young woman crashed into an 85°C Bakery Café in Shattuck Square in Berkeley, California. No one was seriously hurt in the incident.
