Two men were severely injured Monday after a car crashed into a building in the 1400 block of Pittsburgh Street in Cheswick.
Allegheny Valley police received a call about a reckless driver on Pittsburgh Street, said Sgt. Craig Cummings.
Around 8:30 a.m., police went looking for the car and found it smashed into the Motor Mart Building.
Two men, one from Harrison, were taken to a Pittsburgh hospital, Cummings said. Police did not say where the other man was from.
