The driver of a car that smashed into a downtown Hamilton store is facing charges.

Just before 10:00 a.m. Thursday morning, police were called to the area of Emerald Street North and King Street East after a vehicle drove through a storefront window.

Police say the driver failed to properly negotiate a right-hand turn.

A 34-year-old woman has been charged with careless driving and driving with a G1 licence without being accompanied by a qualified driver.

A city building inspector says the store is structurally sound and no evacuation was required.

The vehicle suffered extensive damage, but no one was hurt.
