OXFORD (CBS) – A pickup truck crashed inside a store in Oxford overnight and police said the driver was drunk.
The truck slammed into the front of the Xtra Mart convenience store on Southbridge Road early Friday morning, leaving a massive hole in the entrance and debris scattered through the aisles.
