Late Friday night, a vehicle slammed into a laundromat at the corner of College and Campbell, causing a fire, as well as significant damage to the structure.

The dramatic crash was also caught on surveillance video.

"I thought it was a transport truck but then I looked out and the transport truck moved. And then I seen the fire, so I ran out to see what happened. I've never seen that before," says witness Leona Pennll.

One person was sent to hospital from the incident.

A woman in the passenger seat suffered non-life threatening injuries.

Tom Greer is the owner of the laundry mat.

He received a phone call from police Friday, notifying him that a car had crash through his building.

"It's kind of a shock to have to deal with that but what can you do?" says Greer.

"We are opening up in the future, not too long, and I already got some plans to make the place better."

Police say the male driver ran from the scene but what later arrested.
