Revere Police confirmed that the car struck La Esquina del Sabor on Unity Avenue, leaving the restaurant with severe structural damage, as reported by NBC10 Boston.
Troubling sights of wrecked walls and a roof bent out of shape greeted first responders, yet miraculously, no injuries were reported at the scene despite the extent of the ruinous clash a black sedan left in its wake both La Esquina del Sabor and additional surrounding business suffered significant structural damage, this according to reports from WHDH.
In the aftermath, an uncertain future looms for those reliant on the impacted business. Diego Preciedo, part-owner of the family-friendly locale, expressed his deep concern, not just for the bricks and mortar but for the tangible lives impacted by the establishment's unforeseen closure. "We've got a big loss in here," Preciedo conveyed in an interview with NBC10 Boston. He shared the daunting prospect of downtime their bustling kitchen faces, distressing indeed for the 25 families whose livelihoods are intertwined with the diner's day-to-day operations.
