No, we are not opening up a new municipal drive in liquor store. Yesterday around the Noon hour a customer of the City’s Den Road liquor store was pulling into a parking spot and hit the accelerator instead of the brake. Net effect: see above. The customer drove its (I’m being gender neutral to protect the offending gender) car into our store – literally into our store.
This is what the store looked like from the inside:
No one was injured in this accident, although 10 cases of low-cost wine were destroyed. Total product lost is estiamted at $1,200. A terrific mess was made. We are going to get an estimate of the repair cost today. The store did not close. We continued doing business right through the incident, thanks to the heads-up work of our Den Road liquor store staff.
