The Guthrie County Sheriff’s Office says no injuries were reported after a pickup truck struck the Guthrie Center Post Office building at 500 Main Street, Saturday afternoon. Authorities say 94-year-old Theodore Keith Hansen, of Guthrie Center, was driving a 2021 Toyota pickup and pulling into a parking spot in front of the Post Office, when he stepped on the accelerator instead of the brake. The pickup accelerated out of control, hopped a curb, and hit the building near the door.

The accident, which happened at around 3:05-p.m., Saturday, caused $12,000 damage to the pickup, and an estimated $6,000 damage to the Post Office. Hansen was cited for Failure to Maintain Control.
