A 20-year-old man was flown by Air Care to University Hospital in Cincinnati after smashing his Chevrolet Cavalier into a concrete block wall at a Fairfield Township Walmart store Monday night.
Police say the man apparently ran his vehicle into the store intentionally-while going 70 miles an hour.
The accident happened at the store on Princeton Road Walmart about 9:50 p.m. The car hit the brick exterior wall of the store's vehicle service area.
The man’s name and condition were not immediately released. No one else was hurt.
Prolly a union hazing for the new member.
Jeeze, and I always thought there was a major difference between "block" and "brick."
Had my 1st Hudepohl draft in Fairfield. In the Elbow Room on Magie Ave. with George the owner. A 12 oz mug cost all of $0.15 cents.
Man...it was good.
shhh, don’t say brick or you will get a visit from the brownshirts.
Why not ask the dipsh!t Yankee in the Ohio-plated Cavalier?
html is your friend.
No, properly sizing an image so I don't have to use size and width tags are the best choice. No matter, I just deleted the image from my FTP.
It was a Blue Light Special!
Walmart Greeter (according to Walter): Get your s!@% and get out!
Was that back in the Stone Age?
He was trying to hit 88 mph!
Isn’t the garage entrance around the left corner?
That's K-Mart, Not Wal Mart.
Maybe early-mid ‘68 or so.The Elbow had Hudepohl regularly on draft. And alternated between Burger and Schoenling on draft. Always featured good fresh Cincy beer. Red Cap Ale also (in bottles) and one of the first places to offer Little Kings.
I remember paying $2.50 a six-pack for it at Bob’s Deli in Norwood (using a fake I.D.) back in my day.
What? No Hamms?
Walmarts are not built with structural brick walls, but with a brick facade. They are built with structural steel, with rather thin walls on the outside. One local building, in fact, used lightweight foam for the exterior, which was then treated to look like brick. It even feels like brick when you touch it, but it is much lighter and much cheaper than brick. look how white that material is at the top of the photo. IT is not the color of cement as a cinder black wall would be. I can believe a car would penetrate that exterior rather easily.
