A bank employee was lucky to escape with only minor injuries as a car slammed into a Wells Fargo in Woodland Hills. Gordon Tokumatsu reports for the NBC4 News at 5 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 5, 2018.
A driver crashed into the entrance of a Wells Fargo bank Monday at the Westfield Village shopping center in Woodland Hills.
"I heard a big boom and a big crash. And I'm across the street, like, a block away," said witness Troy Barker.
Paramedics responded to the bank at 6320 Topanga Canyon Blvd. at 10:20 a.m., the Los Angeles Fire Department reported.
Video showed the car, a silver Lexus sedan, inside the building with shattered glass scattered around the entrance.
In a split second, the Lexus had pushed a man working inside the bank and his desk through a plate glass window.
LA City Fire officials say a second man was briefly trapped, but managed to get clear.
Amazingly, only two people suffered minor injuries.
