Charges are pending against a 67-year-old driver who smashed into a post office in Boulder on Friday morning and injured one person inside. It happened at the U.S. Postal Service's Valmont office at 2995 55th Street.

The person who was hurt was a 50-year-old man and he was taken to the hospital with what were described as serious injuries. No one else inside was hurt and the driver was uninjured.

Police say an initial investigation indicates the driver, a woman, was trying to park her SUV at the time of the crash but instead the car shot forward and through the building's front plate glass window.

Her name, and the name of the victim, have not been released.
