Philadelphia police say just after 2:30 a.m., officers at 31st and Oxford Streets were trying to pull over a Mercedes SUV that had been reported stolen.
The SUV continued for two blocks and then crashed into a set of floor to ceiling windows at The Hub at 31 Brewerytown at 31st and Master Streets.
The 18-year-old male driver was ejected. Paramedics transported him to Hahnemann Hospital with a broken leg.
