A Buckhead boutique will be picking up the pieces for some time after a car crashed through its front window Thursday morning, causing plenty of damage.

According to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, a Tesla electric car burst through the window of Vintage at approximately 9:40 a.m. The business does not open until 10 a.m., so nobody was inside at the time of the accident. The wayward electric car shattered imported pottery and destroyed high-end furniture, the AJC said.

The owner of Vintage told the AJC that police suspect the driver of the expensive car hit the gas instead of the brake while trying to park. Police have not decided whether to file charges in this case.
