“I’m still in shock,” she confessed, reflecting on her near encounter with danger.

The vehicle involved, identified as a Holden sedan, didn’t just crash into the establishment once. It reversed and struck the building a second time before making a hasty escape from the scene.

“Maybe he accidentally (did) this,” the cleaner, who wished to remain anonymous, said. 

Smashed glass was seen on the ground near the laundromat.

“I’m not sure what’s happened with him… because he hit (the building) a few times.”

Police located the vehicle in Craigmore, however, the driver remains at large.

The laundromat had recently replaced the window after a customer accidentally broke it last week. 

The business continued to operate today but it’s believed the damage bill will exceed $5000.
