A Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet in east-central Minnesota underwent some rapid remodeling, when a minivan plowed through a wall, authorities said.

The woman behind the wheel Friday afternoon outside the KFC in Pine City hit the gas instead of the brake while attempting to park, sending the vehicle through the wall, according to the Sheriff's Office.

There were "very minor" injuries suffered by a couple of people inside the building, the Sheriff's Office added.
