Channel 9 spoke with a man who said he was involved in a crash with the driver of the vehicle before she hit the business.
“They sped up backward and smacked my car. So I got out of the car, and when I got out of the car, it was just like whoever was in the car just sped off,” Eric Highsmith explained. “I don’t know if they thought I was following them, but when I pull up, my boy says, ‘Yo, there’s a big accident down the street.’ I pull up, and then I see him on the ground leaking, and there’s a whole car inside the check cashing place.”
Channel 9 has reached out to officials for more details.
