Two people were slightly injured Thursday when a 70-year-old woman's cat attacked her face, causing her to slam her Toyota Solara into the restaurant where the two people were eating lunch, Folsom police reported Friday.

The incident occurred about 12:23 p.m. at Barbecue Express in the 6600 block of Folsom-Auburn Road. The Solara nearly came through the wall, and the two diners were struck by a piece of that wall as well as a soft drink machine and a table, said Officer Michelle Beattie, police spokeswoman.

They complained of pain, but there is no indication that they required transportation to a hospital.

The owners and the people who work at Barbecue Express may be the ones really feeling the pain.

The business is closed, at least temporarily, said a worker who answered the telephone Friday but declined to give his name. He was on duty Thursday when the Solara hit the wall.

"It sounded like an earthquake," the man said. "That woman came out of nowhere."
