Odessa, Texas – Seven people were injured Friday afternoon after a car crashed into a business in Odessa, according to the Odessa Police Department.
The crash happened around 11:44 a.m., May 10, at an ice cream shop known as Alfredo’s Paleteria on 42nd Street and Bonham Avenue.
Police said 66-year-old Rhonda Thomas, of Odessa, was facing westbound on the street in a 2018 Toyota Highlander and was attempting to make a left turn.
Thomas failed to yield the right of way to an oncoming red Ford Expedition, causing the front end of the Toyota to hit the left rear quarter panel of the Expedition.
