The 61-year-old driver from Lodi told police her brakes failed at a stop sign, sending her 2012 328i into the West Plesantview building of Breen Topsoil at 11:50 a.m., Capt. Nicole Foley said.

She wasn't injured, the captain said.

The crash, however, damaged a support beam, the garage bay doors, the entry door, and the building’s façade, along with the cycles, Foley said.

Firefighters temporarily shored up the inside of the building.

City building officers were awaiting a structural engineer to determine how serious the damage is.

No summonses were immediately issued. An investigation was pending.
