Car Crashes Through Shoe Carnival Front Door

Police stand outside Shoe Carnival Friday morning after a car crashed through the glass doors just after 10:00 a.m.

No one was hurt when a car crashed through the front of Shoe Carnival on the Belt Highway Friday morning.

Witnesses say an elderly man was trying to park his car just after 10:00 a.m. He apparently hit the gas pedal and not the brake. The car crashed through the glass doors and made a 90 degree left turn inside before stopping.

A witness says the driver let her cross the street before he attempted to park.

The witness also says a clerk at the front check-out of Shoe Carnival jumped onto the desk and out of the way of the car. A structural engineer was called in to make sure the building is safe.
