ROSSVILLE, Ill. (WCIA) – Three people are recovering after they were injured when a car drove through the Rossville Family Restaurant.
The CEO saw it all happen on Sunday and says the business can take a hit over the next few months. Angela Graveline says it could take three weeks to four months to repair everything.
Between breakfast and lunch, a car burst through the restaurant’s double doors, just as three customers were entering. He says chaos ensued as staff members went into “emergency mode”.
“It literally sounded like a bomb going off, and then there was the rain of glass. Time just stopped. It takes a moment, then you realize there’s a car here, there’s people hurt, somebody’s calling for phone,” Graveline said.
Graveline hopes they can find a temporary solution and open a backup. In the meantime, he says if you want to send cards to the injured, you can address them to the restaurant at PO Box #203 in Rossville, 60963.
