Car crashes through front of Massachusetts nail salon
SAUGUS - A car crashed into the front of a nail salon in Saugus Wednesday morning.
It happened at the Lavanda Salon on Route 1 just before 10 a.m. After the car was removed from the salon and towed away, crews remained on the scene, scooping up broken glass and bricks. A building inspector has been called in.
Those inside felt the building shake
There were nail technicians inside at the time but no one was hurt. Those who were inside told WBZ TV they felt the building shake and were terrified as the car smashed through the wall.
"What I'm surprised is that often, we don't have a lot of injuries when the vehicle is completely in the building like that," said Mike Zaccaria of Action Emergency Management. "So it's lucky, just fate, that everybody walked away from this."
The owners of Lavanda had only just renovated the salon.
Driver wasn't hurt
The driver of the car, a 63-year-old woman, was rescued from the car. She was evaluated at the scene and wasn't hurt.
It's unclear how the crash happened.
