Car crashes through wall of fitness center at Kansas City, Kansas, Community College

A member at the Kansas City, Kansas, Community College’s Wellness and Fitness Center backed a car through a wall Monday morning, forcing the center to close until further notice, the college said in a post on Facebook.

No one was injured in the crash about 10:30 a.m. Monday at the community college at 7250 State Avenue. The car, which appeared to be a Lincoln sedan, went through the east exterior wall of the center.

Kansas City, Kansas, Police Chief Terry Zeigler posted a photo that showed virtually the entire car had passed through the wall of the building.

“Thank God there were no serious injuries,” he said.
