Car Plows Into Birmingham Hair Salon

BIRMINGHAM (WWJ) - They're sweeping up more than hair at a Birmingham salon after a woman drove her car into the Great Clips on Maple Road near Woodward.

It happened at around 11 a.m. Monday.

WWJ Newsradio 950's Beth Fisher talked with Laura, the salon's manager.

"I was in my office and all of a sudden you heard something ... it sounded like, you know, a bomb or something went off and people screaming," she said. "I came running out and a staff members was running and an employee was running."

Laurie said luckily, no one was hurt, but the car is in the area where stylists work, and one had just walked away when the car came through.

Laurie said there is glass and brick all over and they're now working to find out about getting repairs done.

Meantime, Birmingham Police said they don't know yet what caused the driver to plow into the salon.
