'Like a car just flew through the air': 2 killed in Detroit crash
Witnesses say a vehicle went airborne over other vehicles in the parking lot of a Detroit liquor store before crashing into the building late Sunday. Two people were killed, while another person was seriously injured.
DETROIT (FOX 2) - Two people are dead after a violent crash that ended with a vehicle slammed into Prince Liquor on Detroit's east side late Sunday.
Though exactly what happened isn't clear yet, multiple vehicles were hit at Prince Liquor on Gratiot near Harper before a vehicle drove into the building just before midnight.
"I just want to say that I'm thankful I'm alive," Jasmin Martin said. "I was sitting in the car, and it happened so fast… the car came speeding and flew over my car, hit my car, and all I saw was bodies over my car."
Another witness said he saw the car go airborne and split in half.
"It look like a car just flew through the air, split in half. And people was in the car as it flew into the store. It’s just a terrible thing," the witness, Ray, said.
Martin was on her way home from work when she stopped at the store and found herself in the middle of the deadly crash.
"I was not expecting something like this," she said.
The medical examiner confirmed two people were killed. It isn't clear if those killed were in the vehicle or were bystanders. Another person is in temporary serious condition.
An investigation is ongoing.
