Shocked traders left to inspect the damage after car slams into shops
Shocked traders were left checking their businesses for damage after a car crashed into the front of their building.
Emergency services rushed to the scene on Park Street, Kingswinford, close to the junction with Market Street, at around 9.36am on Tuesday.
Paramedics found a man who was the driver of the car had sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
Andrea Howard, owner of @1 Park Street, praised the efforts of the local shops in the area following the crash and also said her business had been badly affected.
Andrea said: "It was a tremendous shock when the car hit the building. We are actually waiting on a structural engineer to come and assess the damage, but a builder said that the whole shop may need to be repaired because of the structural damage.
"The shop next to us really took most of the damage, they have been really badly affected by it all, this close to Christmas too.
