“We want to thank our patients and families for their patience this week while we worked to ensure the building was operational,” read a statement from Dayton Children’s. “We also thank the companies who worked quickly to repair the damage.”
Around 9 p.m. Saturday a car hit the corner of the Connor Child Health Pavilion, as well as a gas utility line, according to a crash report filed by the Dayton Police Department.
A 2004 Chevrolet Malibu was going south on the state Route 4 exit when the car continued through the Stanley Avenue intersection and drove over the curb, going off the road and hitting the building.
Speed and impairment are suspected factors in the crash.
The driver, a 30-year-old Brookville woman, was taken to Miami Valley Hospital with minor injuries.
She was cited with operating a vehicle without reasonable control, according to the crash report.
