A lucky leap for a bunch of passersby in the southwest Sunday morning.
At around 10:30 a.m. a van heading northbound on 14th Street lost control just before 17th Avenue, collided with some cars along the way, then ended up climbing onto the sidewalk before hitting a building.
Fire Batallian Chief Larry Fischer tells 660News luckily no one was hurt.
“Passerbys that were on the sidewalk heard the collision with one of the cars, noticed the car coming at them and moved out of the way.
No one was in the building at the time and fire crews boarded up the windows on a business.
Fischer says there was only one person in the car and the cause of the crash is under investigation.
