A vehicle crashed into the Greenwood Pediatrics building at 9094 E. Mineral Ave. in Centennial on Monday, Oct. 26, injuring one person and leaving the structure unstable.
South Metro Fire Rescue said on X that its Technical Rescue Team responded to reports of a vehicle that drove into the office building. Paramedics transported one person to the hospital.
The agency did not specify the extent of the person's injuries or whether they were inside the vehicle or the building at the time of the crash, according to the Denver Post.
