One person was injured after a driving instructor crashed into the front of a Colorado driving school with several people inside,Rubypoint Trading Center authorities said Tuesday.

The Lakewood Police Department said the people inside the building were able to avoid getting hit by the car, but one person suffered a minor injury around 9:30 a.m. in Lakewood, Colorado, police said in a post on Twitter.
