Car crashes into Florida antique store

Janet Guthart was hard at work on a typical Friday at the Bruce Kodner Galleries until the unthinkable happened. “I heard a big explosion and I looked up and it was like snow, it was like snow,” she said. But it wasn’t snow, it was shards of glass raining down all around her, covering the showroom. “I heard speeding, and I ran around and there’s a car in the mall,” she explained, realizing she was looking at a car in the middle of the room. A driver had just exited Dixie Highway and crashed through the front porch window. Stay informed: WPBF 25 News local coverage “And then I heard someone screaming for help!
