Authorities are investigating a Wednesday afternoon accident where a car crashed into a Rio Hondo supermarket.

It all happened at Mike's Supermarket off South Colorado Street around 2 p.m. Wednesday.

Police told Action 4 News that an elderly man drove his mini-van into the store after the gas pedal instead of his brakes. 

No customers or employees were injured but the mini-van drove over a concrete barrier and into the front of the store.

Investigators later identified the driver as Rio Hondo area resident Earl Taylor.

Although no major injuries were reported, paramedics took Taylor to the Valley Baptist Medical Center in Harlingen for evaluation.

Mike's Supermarket is said to be the only 'grocery' store in the area.

It's unknown if Taylor will be cited but his 1999 Ford Astro van did not appear to sustain any major damage.
