GREAT NECK, N.Y. (AP) — Police say an SUV pulling into a parking space has barreled through a New York storefront, killing a customer.

A second customer and a store employee also suffered minor injuries Monday in the Long Island crash.

Nassau County police say the victim, 66-year-old Lizabeth Sbarr, was waiting to be served at the AT&T store in Great Neck.

Inspector Kenneth Lack tells Newsday (http://nwsdy.li/1CpYjyC ) the driver was pulling into a parking spot when she went through the store's glass exterior around 10:50 a.m.

Lack says the crash appears to be accidental and no criminal charges are expected.

Bystanders lifted the SUV to free the woman. She was pronounced dead at a hospital shortly after 1 p.m.
