A 71-year-old man crashed a vehicle into the front of a Cedar Lake gas station Thursday, police said.

Cedar Lake police and fire were dispatched at 11:23 a.m. to a BP gas station at the intersection of U.S. 41 and West 133rd Avenue for 2006 Chevy SUV that had crashed into the front of the building, Deputy Chief Carl Brittingham said in a release.

The driver, Robert Pilkin, of Grant Park, Ill., was treated and taken to an area hospital with minor injuries, police said.

“No other injuries were reported,” Brittingham said. The building suffered extensive damage but was structurally safe, Brittingham said.

Propane tanks stored in front of the building were not damaged in the crash and did not result in any leaks, police said.

Cedar Lake police continue to investigate the cause of the crash, Brittingham said.
