"I was standing outside, about to cross the street when I saw the vehicle took the curve and it looked like he lost control and crashed into my boss' fence and knocked down his door, if I had stood a little longer on the street I would have gotten knock down too."

"So you said it was a Coast Guard type vehicle?"

Voice of Worker
"No a coast guard was driving it. It was a 4 door tinted vehicle."

Courtney Weatherburne, 7News
"And you are not familiar with the driver?"

Voice of Worker
"No, no."

Courtney Weatherburne
"So you said after he swerved in and crashed into the fence, what happened after that?"

Voice of Worker
"It looks like he could not get out so he started to punch the windshield and the windshield broke on its own."

Courtney Weatherburne
"And he didn't seem drunk or anything you had no idea what was happening there?"

Voice of Worker
"No, I don't know what happened to him?"

Courtney Weatherburne
"How long did the place take to come? Did you all call police?"

Voice of Worker
No, no as he took the curve, police was right behind him."

Police have not sent out a report on the accident which is reported to have involved a member of the armed services.
