A ute has slammed into the wall of a former information centre in Bundaberg moments after a two-car crash.
Chaos struck about 2.50pm on Wednesday when a blue Holden Commodore ute crashed into the building on Takalvan St, near Bundaberg Hospital.
Reports say a prior crash caused the ute to veer off the road and into a retaining wall on the property.
One patient is being assessed for minor injuries, though their condition is not yet known. Firefighters have two crews on scene assisting with the response.
Hospital workers who witnessed the incident said the ute hit several cars before veering off the road and crashing into the wall.
One witness said ‘the whole building shook’.
The female driver was seen yelling and appeared visibly distressed following the crash. She allegedly tried to walk away but remained on scene.
The incident follows two other significant crashes in Bundaberg West within the past day, including a fatal collision on Takalvan Street on Tuesday night.
Authorities are urging drivers to remain cautious.
