Summary:

Pittsburgh Police officers from Zone 3 responded to reports of a vehicle that drove into a Uni-Mart store on the 1900 block of Brownsville Road at 3:28 a.m.

Officers spoke with the store clerk and a witness who described the vehicle crashing into the glass front doors of the store and reversing before fleeing the scene. No one was hurt.
