An unknown Super Bowl Sunday driver allegedly plowed into Roy’s Auto Center at approximately 8:30 a.m. near the intersection of 5th and Broadway before fleeing the scene. Roy’s Auto Center owner Trent Shumard told the Outpost that the involved car is believed to be a red Mitsubishi Lancer or a Subaru WRX.
“[The car] spun out and crashed into our offices, causing structural damage to our building,” Shumard said. “Eyewitnesses say that the car proceeded down 5th and turned on E Street.”
Photos of the scene show the building’s glass facade smashed in multiple places. Drivers have reportedly damaged cars on the lot in the past, but Shumard said that this is the first time a car has driven into his building.
“Fortunately we have a tight community of business owners eager to help when incidents like this occur,” he said.
The broken glass has since been cleaned from the sidewalk and the building’s holes are now boarded up.
