A local Mexican restaurant, Dos Maguey’s, sustained damage Tuesday after a vehicle left the roadway and crashed into the building. According to a preliminary report released by the Georgia State Patrol Public Information Office, the incident occurred in downtown Summerville. The report states that the vehicle was traveling northbound on Commerce Street when it veered off the road, initially onto the right shoulder. The vehicle then proceeded onto the sidewalk, striking a decorative Coca-Cola barrel. Continuing on the sidewalk, the vehicle then collided with a support pole of Dos Maguey’s Mexican Restaurant, located at 10020 Commerce Street, before ultimately crashing into the front of the building. The vehicle came to an uncontrolled stop following the impact. The report did not immediately specify the cause of the vehicle leaving the roadway, nor did it mention any injuries sustained as a result of the accident. The Georgia State Patrol is continuing to investigate the incident. Further details will be released as they become available.
