NORWALK, Calif. (UPI) -- An elderly California woman was arrested
after she allegedly drove her car into the windows of a convenience
store and then tried to buy beer, police said.
Lynne Rice, 74, is accused of driving her 1988 Cadillac into the front
windows of Joe's Food Mart, said Lt. Jenny Ha of the Norwalk Sheriff's
Station.
Officials said damages from the Sunday crash total about $8,000.
The store owner said after the 112-pound woman crashed into the store
she got out of the car and tried to buy a six-pack of Bud.
Rice allegedly shoved the cashier when he refused to make the sale,
the Long Beach (Calif.) Press-Telegram reported.
Ha said no injuries were reported in the incident, but Rice received
medical treatment for an existing health problem.
Rice was released Sunday from the Norwalk Sheriff's Station on $15,000
bail after being arrested on suspicion of drunken driving, the
newspaper said.
