“According to the fire department’s Technical Rescue Team, there were no load-bearing walls affected and no structural integrity issues,” Rutledge said in a news release.

The vehicle was removed from the building by 7:30 p.m. and the scene was turned over to police, he said.

The accident is still under investigation, but a Gwinnett County police spokesman said charges are not likely as it occurred on private property. The driver was not suspected of driving impaired.
