One person was killed and five were injured when a car checked into a Texas hospital on Tuesday night local time in the emergency department lobby.
The car – so far unknown how – broke into St. David’s North Austin Medical Center in Austin, Texas around 17:38 local time. Firefighters immediately went to the scene where they managed to extricate the driver of the car. Doctors and paramedics performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on him, but unfortunately were unable to save him, Austin Fire Chief Thayer Smith said.
At the same time, five people were injured – among them two adults and two children who were taken to other hospitals.
The building was not seriously damaged and the damage was mainly limited to the exterior doors of the emergency department, while an aquarium in the lobby area was also destroyed.
The causes of the incident are currently unknown.
