CAR CRASHES THROUGH FRONT OF ELK GROVE BANK
It was a lovely autumn day in the City of Elk Grove. Suddenly, and without warning, the peaceful afternoon was jolted to attention by an earsplitting sound.
At about 1:25 p.m. on Monday, September 21, 2015, a motorist drove a car through a building on the 8500 block of Elk Grove-Florin Road.
Witnesses standing in front of Togo’s and Baskin-Robbins had a very good view of the accident scene from their vantage point across the parking lot.
WHAT HAPPENED?
The driver was just trying to park the car, but instead inadvertently crashed right through the building, according to the Elk Grove Police Department.
The specific cause of the accident is currently under investigation.
WERE THERE ANY INJURIES?
An employee inside the building received minor injuries.
The driver and passenger, of the vehicle pictured above, were shaken up. Fortunately, they were not injured.
PARKING LOT ACCIDENTS
With the holidays quickly approaching, parking lots are more congested, and people are busy trying to get all their shopping done. People are in a hurry and some shoppers get cranky.
Inattentive or just really dumb drivers can really increase the chances of becoming injured in a parking lot accident. This can happen any time, as we see here, but increases tremendously during the holiday season.
Please folks, keep your eyes focused on your surroundings. Keep those little ones close to you, because you never know when something like the accident reported here, might happen to you or someone you love.
