A driver in her 90s reportedly lost control of her car and plowed into an Arizona business lobby.
“It could take months to restore the damages”, said the store's representative Kevin Choi, who added that Belle Vie Salon Studios is asking for funds online to repair the shop.
The driver was not seriously injured, nor was anyone in the beauty salon.

The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed colorful new portraits of the iconic Ring Nebula.
The new images capture the complex details of the planetary nebula, an enormous cloud of cosmic gas and dust that’s home to the remnants of a dying star.
The two images were taken in different wavelengths of infrared light, which is invisible to the human eye, using instruments in the space observatory. Webb previously captured a different perspective on the Ring Nebula, as well as the similar-looking Southern Ring Nebula.
A longtime favorite of astronomers, the Ring Nebula has been studied for years due to its observability and the insight it can provide into the lifetime of stars. It is located in the Lyra constellation more than 2,000 light-years from Earth, but on clear evenings during the summer, skygazers using binoculars can see it.
