A table struck by the vehicle caused a minor injury to one person inside the restaurant, which was open for business at the time, a spokesperson for the San Gabriel Police Department told KTLA. No other injuries were reported.

The driver fled the scene after the crash but was located nearby and taken into custody without incident, according to the spokesperson. The driver was identified only as a female adult.

There was no immediate word on what caused the crash, or if drugs or alcohol were factors.
