Just got back from seeing the aftermath of an accident where a Mercedes went flying into the front of the Surf Station:

Here is rumor to what happened. May not be true as it is just heresay at this point, but here it is: The owner of the Mercades is 22, she picked up a guy in a bar who was 52. He was driving. He is wanted in VA for DUI and other misc. charges.

He was driving around 55 mph across the Bridge of Lions heading towards the shop. Rumors had it he increased speed to between 70 and 80 mph and didn't even try to negotiate the turn coming from the direction of the Alligator Farm. He smasheed through the sign out front by the Shave Ice and plowed into the Building. She was later life flighted and is in critical condition this morning. He is in the hospital, don't know the status.

Our ace employee Kevin H. witnessed the accident although none of the above info is from him. We'll get more info from him later. We do have security tapes at the shop, it ought to be an interesting see, if they were working.

Bobby Kilroy was there and got video shortly afer the accident.
