Car crashes into Orland Park post Office

At approximately 1:49 PM on Thursday, September 21st, 2023, The Orland Fire Protection District (OFPD) responded to a report that a car had crashed into the building at 9500 W. 144th Place, identified as the Orland Park Post Office.

On arrival crews found a vehicle that had driven completely into the lobby at the post office.

The car drove through the glass windows and was stopped by a brick wall  causing damage to the lobby. 

The driver of the car stated she was not injured but was checked out at the scene by Orland Paramedics.
