Surveillance video captured the exact moment a pickup truck crashed into a pet store in El Monte.

“It’s very tragic, but at the same time we know it was an accident,” said co-owner Mabel Flores. “The person who caused this was here. They stayed here the whole time to make sure everyone was okay. »

All pets and employees at Wes’ Pets and Feeds escaped unharmed.

The Los Angeles Fire Department responded to the store located in the 4400 block of Peck Road.

A driver was apparently trying to reverse the truck, but stepped on the wrong pedal.

“We really feel like the community is here with us and they’re going to help us get back to business as quickly as possible,” Flores said.

The owners say the store will be closed indefinitely, but they are grateful that their community is stepping up to help and support them.
