CHICAGO (WLS) -- Surveillance video shows an SUV crashing through the front of a West Town restaurant and bar Monday.

Police said a 77-year-old driver was attempting to parallel park when he hit the gas instead of the brakes, reversing through the front windows of Cleos Bar and Grill in the 1900-block of W. Chicago Avenue.

The video shows someone walking in front of the bar just moments before the crash.

No one was injured and the driver was not cited, police said.
