Woman crashes car into Lake Ozark post office
By LakeExpo.com Staff
LAKE OZARK, Mo. -- A Lincoln Town Car crashed through a wall at the Lake Ozark Post Office during rush hour Monday leaving drivers with mouths agape and sending emergency personnel into action.
It appears a woman in her seventies, reportedly too drunk to drive and with an open beer in the car, accidentally hit the accelerator instead of the brake when attempting to park. The car crashed through a glass window and brick wall destroying several post office boxes. The woman then reportedly slipped the car in reverse, backed out of the building, hit a retaining wall and fell out the driver’s side door onto the ground.
The woman suffered moderate injuries and was taken to Lake Regional Hospital.
Lake Ozark Police cited the woman for DWI, open container and failure to provide proof of insurance.
