LITCHFIELD – A vehicle smashed into the front door of Litchfield’s Pantry Pride Convenience Mart on Sunday afternoon, shutting down the business until the damage could be repaired.
Police said a 15 1/2-year-old male driver crashed into the entrance of the store at 469 Charles Bancroft Highway (also Route 3A). A press release said the teen was learning how to drive with his mother at the time of the accident in a 2004 Pontiac Aztek. Police said he accidentally hit the gas pedal instead of the brakes, which caused the vehicle to hit the front entrance of the convenience store at approximately 2:24 p.m.
Owner Young Kim declined to comment to a Telegraph reporter as he swept away the debris left in the wake of the accident late Sunday afternoon.![]()
