KUCHING: Pandemonium broke out when a car rammed into a coffee shop near Kuching Sentral on Thursday night, sending food stall operators and customers flying with the dishes.

The bizarre ‘drive-in’ happened around 7pm when a food seller in his 50s and his female assistant were in the midst of preparing an order for a table of customers.

At that very moment, a Perodua Alza driven by a woman suddenly burst into the coffee shop and rammed into his stall and several tables, sending shocked customers scrambling to safety.

The operator and his assistant, however, were unable to avoid the car and ended up being pinned beneath the vehicle.

Fortunately for the pair, they were not seriously hurt but were sent to the Sarawak General Hospital.

The food stall operator was admitted into the Yellow Zone for light injuries, while the assistant and four customers received outpatient treatment for bruises.

The shaken Alza driver, who was said to be working at a nearby laundromat, was not hurt in the bizarre incident.
