This morning's snowfall is being blamed for a driver losing control of her car and ramming into a school in Mankato, Minn.
Pamela Tollefson, of St. Peter, Minn., was heading west on Main Street and coming down a hill when the car "began skidding on the freshly fallen snow," a police report said.
Tollefson, 48, turned right in an effort to avoid sliding down the rest of the hill, sending her car over a curb, the sidewalk and into the River Bend Academy charter school at Main and 6th Streets, police said.
No injuries were reported. Police estimated damage to the car at $3,000 and to the school at $100.
