15/06/2009 - Car crashes through diner window
Terrified lunch-time diners at a Northern Ireland restaurant were covered in broken glass when a car crashed through the window.
Police had been chasing the car through the village of Lisnarick, near Enniskillen, when it rammed the Tullana On The Green. A 21-year-old man was arrested.
Said Craig Woods, one of the 50 customers: "I was sitting with my right-hand side to where the car came though the window. There was a massive bang and we saw the rafters coming down from the roof and a couple of posts that were holding up parts of the roof came down over one of the tables.
"The glass just completely shattered over everybody. We looked round and saw a car through the window. The car didn't actually hit anyone, thankfully."
Police said no-one was seriously, although there were local reports that ambulances took two people to hospital.
