PLAIN TWP. No injuries were reported Friday after a van crashed through the storefront window of the Bureau of Motor Vehicles office on Whipple Avenue NW.

Stark County Sheriff Lt. Ryan Carver said a woman driving a Grand Caravan mistook the vehicle's gas for the brake as she was pulling into a handicap parking spot in front of the building at 2812 Whipple Ave. NW. The crash occurred just before noon.

The van, which toppled the handicap parking sign, stopped at the office's counter, causing some damage to the bottom of the counter. As BMV workers watched Plain Township fire crews clean up the shattered glass, they also directed customers to other nearby BMV locations.

Lindsey Bohrer, spokeswoman for the Bureau of Motor Vehicles, said Friday afternoon that the office, which is located in a plaza across from Acme Fresh Market, is expected to reopen Monday.
