Senior driver smashed into senior apartment building in Des Moines

Police say a "senior driver" mistook the gas pedal for the brake pedal and sent her BMW plowing into a first floor apartment at Corinthian Gardens Senior Apartments at 10th and University in Des Moines Sunday.

The occupants of the car were trapped inside, but were rescued after the car was pulled out of the apartment.  They weren't injured.  

Neither were the occupants of the apartment. But they were forced to live elsewhere while repairs were made.
