74-year-old Lynne Rice of Norwalk drove her 1988 Cadillac into Joe’s Food Mart and Video then tried to buy a six-pack of Budweiser, according to police and the owner of the shop. The car plowed about halfway through the store but nobody was injured. Rice got out of the car, walked over to the cooler and pulled out a six-pack of Budweiser beer.
“I don’t know how she managed to walk,” the store ownder,Awada said. He added that a cashier declined the sale and instead called police. Rice was then taken to a hospital for examination because she had a pre-existing medical condition, according to police.
Later, she was also arrested for investigation of misdemeanor driving under the influence and released on $15,000 bail. Awada said the crash destroyed two 6-foot-wide glass panels. Damage was estimated to be approximately $8,000.
