ABILENE, Texas (AP) —
A West Texas woman has survived driving off the top of a three-story parking garage and her truck landing upside down in a street.
Abilene police say the 47-year-old Tuscola (tuhs-KOH'-luh) woman suffered injuries not believed to be life-threatening in Friday's accident.
Police say the woman was trying to park in a bank's garage when her foot slipped off the brake. Police believe the woman accidentally hit the accelerator, causing the pickup truck to crash through a garage retaining wall.
The truck tumbled to the street, damaging a section of garage on the way down.
Abilene police say the woman, whose name wasn't released, was able to get out of the wrecked vehicle and was taken to a hospital.
City inspectors will evaluate the structure of the damaged parking garage.
