WKRC ^ | 3/30/2010 | WKRC

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.

The first responder on the scene was 83 year old greeter Elwood Pinelander who quickly asked to see the man’s receipt.

Does Walmart still have greeters? I haven't seen one in years.

Nope. It’s a UAW-built Government Motors product. Stuck accelerator pedals are impossible.

That does not look like a70 mph crash into a cement block wall. Especially from a Chevy Cavalier....................30 mph tops...........

Let me guess: the driver was a member of the Young Republicans?

It must have been a REALLY good sale that he was trying to get to.
A blue light special for sure.

Actually, I can’t be bothered by the color thing. More of an issue for my Yankee, light in the loafers, friends. I just buy silver cars.

Why southern people? I have seen rusted up heaps in the north that would have looked better with a little duct tape.

It’s very scary. My friend and his wife and the younger son lived dreading something like this for years, because they knew that sooner or later, the older son was going to be successful at killing himself. And he was.

Some reporter still hasn’t learned the difference of metrics I think.

70kph maybe.

Was their an IRS office in the store?
