TOLEDO, Ohio — A car drove into Rudy's Hot Dog off Alexis Road in west Toledo early Saturday morning, according to the Toledo Fire and Rescue Department.

Fire officials on the scene told WTOL 11 this is the fifth time a car has driven into the establishment. 

Fire crews say multiple people were in the car at the time of the crash. Kayla Wood, 22 and Quinesha Smith, 28, were taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

Police say the driver fled the scene of the crash but was later located and identified as Denzel Middleton, 23. Middleton was cited for the crash.
