Valley Village Elder Backs into THREE Cars

LAist reader Drew wrote in with some news in his part of town, and he was nice enough to attach some photos. Wow, thanks, Drew!

Hey Tony!

Apparently an elderly driver was leaving the UPS store in the little shopping corner on Riverside and Laurel Canyon (where Starbucks and Subway are), backed into THREE cars and then tried to flee the scene only to hit another car pulling into the parking lot and ended up smashing into the hair salon. I had a quick word with one of the emergency workers who said everyone was fine- one lady was a little banged up. Way to go guys!

Best,
Drew
