Just a half an hour later the only traces of the car that slammed into the CVS on Lexington Street was the bright yellow caution tape placed on the poles around a significant indentation in the brick facade just below a window.

No windows appeared damaged and a CVS employee was replacing the products that had fallen off the wall during the crash. People inside the CVS reported hearing a loud sound as if a shelf were falling over and saw that a number of items had shaken off the shelves near the front of the building.

Witnesses said no one inside the building was injured.

The manager at CVS said she could not confirm whether anyone was injured or provide any more details because she did not have permission to speak to the media and didn't want to get into trouble.

The public relations based in Rhode Island was not immediately available by phone to respond to inquiries.
