“According to initial reports, a dump truck descending 69th Street hill lost control, crossed into oncoming traffic, and struck a tractor-trailer,” Sacco wrote. “The force of the collision caused both vehicles to crash into the Target store. … Additional updates will be provided as new information arises. Please offer your support and prayers to the injured individuals.” 

The Target was open for business at the time of the crash. It is unclear how many people were in the affected area.
