The incident was captured by a surveillance camera in the Angelina city of South Gate
A surveillance video released on a Los Angeles newscast shows the spectacular crash of a runaway car, doing a cartwheel and then crashing into the wall of a Carl’s Jr. restaurant in the Angelina city of South Gate.
The accident occurred Friday around midnight on Alameda Street near Firestone Boulevard according to the report.
The video is impressive, but it is more so when you see that after the destructive crash two people leave the car and escape on foot.
