Unhappy My Poor, Poor Liquor Store!

About 3 hours ago a man apparently had a heart attack while at the wheel and drove his pick-up through the front of my liquor store. About 2/3 of the truck was inside the store and just missed our employee. Luckily no one was hurt although she is quite shaken up. The truck caromed off another vehicle and passed between a power pole and a street sign, jumped the curb and plowed into the building. The truck ran right through the red wine display and it looks like a slaughter house in there with blood-red wine all over everything. Unfortunately I have no pics as I didn't think to bring my camera. It sure looks strange to see a vehicle sticking out of a building like that. They managed to pull the truck out without doing any more damage to the building. Apparently the driver had no valid driver's license and his insurance had expired, so I guess our insurance will be stuck with the bill.

Ow! That's painful!

I hope he gets a hefty charge. Did he survive the heart attack?
