The incident happened at about 1:30 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 10 in Chesterton, Indiana at 524 Indian Boundary Road, police said.

Video shows two customers at a table and an employee barely escaped with no injuries.

Police said the driver "inadvertently shifted into drive while attempting to park."

An employee of the restaurant said the vehicle got stuck on a concrete block from the handicapped parking sign.

"If that hadn't been the case, I fear what would have happened to the nice couple enjoying lunch at the table or the employee who was walking out the door," the employee said.

No injuries were reported.
