According to the Citrus County Sheriff’s Office, yesterday at around 1:30 p.m. the driver suffered a medical event and sailed into the Citrus Ford dealership. The driver reportedly became dizzy, hit an embankment and flew 140-feet into the air, damaging four dealership cars in the process.
“There were no brake marks. It looks like he was actually on the gas the whole time when he hit that, so he had to be doing 70, 80, 90-miles an hour,” Sales Manager Bruce Azevedo said to Fox 13.
Authorities say no one was injured in the incident and the driver is receiving treatment.
