No injuries after car slams into midtown storefront


On Sunday night, a black Volvo spun out of control as the driver turned onto Eglinton Avenue. At 1588 Eglinton the car crashed through the glass window. There were 4 people in the car at the time of the accident and none of them got hurt and no one was in the store at that time. Police allege that the driver was traveling at a high rate of speed. Police did not reveal the names or ages of the driver and passengers but said they don't believe alcohol was a factor in the crash. Traffic in the area was closed for more than an hour but by Monday morning, the accident scene was cleared. Authorities said the driver will likely face charges in connection with the accident.

The police said there was no alcohol involved so I suspect that there was some kind of race going on. This seems crazy to me. It is so dangerous. This happened at 10:45 at night so that means that there were still people on the street who could have gotten hurt even killed just because the drivers wanted the thrill of racing their car. If they really want a thrill of racing they should go to a drag strip where there is controlled conditions. I hope the police take their care away from them.
