A Costco in London’s south end is open today, after a terrifying crash around noon on Friday. Six people were taken to hospital, the most seriously hurt, a pregnant woman and her two daughters.
The woman had a C-section last night. Police say she is in stable condition, but they aren't commenting on the baby.
They are also not providing an update on the two girls, saying they are speaking to family and friends first. Both were listed in critical condition yesterday.
“The little girl was not doing well, she was hurt really bad, said Tracy Carne who witnessed the incident.
“We sang ‘Wheels on the Bus’ to the little girl and calmed her down. (We) kept her wrapped and kept talking to her,” added another witness.
For reasons that still aren't clear, a car reversed into the front of the Costco. In addition to the woman and her children, three others were treated for minor injuries, including the driver of the car.
Costco shut down for several hours. They are open today, and the front doors are now filled with flowers, teddy bears and messages of support.
There were hundreds of people in the store yesterday when the car plowed through the doors.
“It almost looked like a tornado, all I saw were piles of shattered glass flying in through the two doors. I saw the car then coming through,” said a witness.
“I guess we're lucky more people weren't hurt because it's a busy spot on a Friday morning,” added another.
There's no word yet on any charges.
