PHOTO - A woman somehow escaped injury after crashing her SUV up against a building at a Starbucks drive-through south of Puyallup, officials said. Police later said drugs were likely a factor in the crash. "This could have been a lot worse," the Pierce County Sheriff's Office said in a statement. The incident unfolded at about 11 a.m. Tuesday at a Starbucks drive-through in South Hill near 132nd Street East and Meridian Avenue East. Police and emergency crews responded to the scene after receiving reports that a car had flipped over and crashed into a building there. The wrecked SUV was found precariously balanced on its nose against another car and a frozen yogurt store. The driver was able to get out of the vehicle on her own. She was not seriously injured. Two other cars and the exterior of the yogurt store were damaged in the crash. None of the occupants in the other vehicles were hurt.
