Bend’s south end Starbucks is closed until further notice after a car crashed into the building Tuesday morning. At around 10 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 10, Bend police confirmed they received a report of an elderly driver who had confused the gas for the brake. There were no injuries to any person, including the driver. A sign on its door reads Starbucks is working to reopen the store on 61470 S Hwy 97 across from Fred Meyer “as quickly as possible.” Construction workers repairing the storefront Wednesday morning said the car slammed into an exterior wall and broke its wooden framing, pushing it into the store and blocking access to the men’s bathroom.
