MACOMB TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WXYZ) – A teen driver crashed through the wall of a restaurant in Macomb Township, Michigan.
Body camera footage from the Macomb County Sheriff’s Office shows the Ford Escape after it crashed through Nori’s Restaurant.
The owner of the family restaurant, Nori Shala, said the crash happened Tuesday at around 7:30 p.m.
“Lucky there were no customers at the time because we were about to close,” Shala said.
Investigators with the sheriff’s office said a teen practicing driving with a permit and a parent in the passenger seat accidentally drove into the front of Nori’s.
“I had to help and reverse the car because the kid was panicked,” Shala said.
A worker, who Shala says is also a family member, was severely injured and taken to the hospital.
Shala said the damage to the building is extensive and he expects the restaurant to be closed for months.
All of this was a shock to loyal customers.
