A display car with a teenage boy inside has reversed into a Myer store at a Sydney shopping centre, injuring two people, police say.
Emergency services were called to the second level of the Liverpool Westfield on George Street about 12.30pm today, where they found two men with minor injuries.
The men, one in his 50s and one in his 30s, suffered head and chest injuries and were treated at the scene before being taken to Liverpool Hospital.
Police said they were told a teenager was sitting in the red electric SUV which was on display inside the shopping centre.
The car accelerated forward, smashing a glass panel, before reversing into the Myer store.
Images of the scene show the vehicle after the incident parked alongside a beauty counter at Myer.
Officers spoke to the 14-year-old at the scene, and he has been allowed to leave with a family member.
Witnesses took photographs of shattered glass panels and store display models which had been knocked over.
Police are investigating after establishing a crime scene.
SafeWork NSW has been called in to investigate.
A spokesperson for the shopping centre said the safety of all of its patrons was a priority.
"Our team engaged emergency services regarding an incident at Westfield Liverpool this afternoon," they said.
"Our team are continuing to support authorities in their response as well as those directly impacted by the incident."
