Car Crashes Through Convenience Store in Laurie

It could’ve been worse…a lot worse…after a car ran partially through the front of a busy gas station convenience store in Laurie. Gravois Fire Chief Ed Hancock says the call to Lake Oasis, on north Main Street, was received early Saturday afternoon…

Some of the customers were hit by debris but not injured. The driver of the car, described as an elderly lady, may have had a medical issue but, otherwise, checked out at the scene and refused any treatment. The store hopes to be re-opened on Monday. It’s the fourth time this year Gravois firefighters responded for a vehicle crashing through a building.
