SAN JOSE (CBS SF) -- Four Walmart customers were injured in San Jose Sunday morning after a suspect crashed a vehicle into the store and started assaulting people, a San Jose police spokesman said.

One victim was seriously injured and taken to a hospital, he said.
Three others victims suffered less serious injuries and were also hospitalized, Dwyer said.
