Staff ‘shaken’ after Dundee shop crash
A spokesperson for First Choice Mortgages told The Courier: “We’re thankful no one has been injured.
“There were staff inside the premises at the time and we were shaken after what took place.
“We will be closed for a few days to assess the damage.”
David Mcfarlane, 22, who works in another mortgage business nearby, said: “We just heard a ‘pow, pow’ and we came out and saw a car in the window of the shop.
“A member of the public opened the door, and the driver was shaken.
“The staff inside must’ve got a fright.”
“No one seemed to be injured – it’s a miracle no one was.
Bob Maver was inside The Pillars pub next door when the crash took place.
He said: “Thank god everyone is OK.
“The driver and the staff inside were all in shock.
“We got the guy out of the car and the police arrived shortly after.”
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “We were made aware of a car having struck the window of a shop on Crichton Street in Dundee shortly after 12.15pm on Monday.
“There are no reported injuries and recovery has been arranged for the vehicle.”
