SUV Driving Inside Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg (Chicago Suburb) IL

[ Edited ]

Just saw a report on Fox News about an SUV riding around where shoppers are walking.  This is quite a large regional mall if I remember from my visit there many years ago. Pretty weird.

That mall is about 1/2 hour from me.  It's ginormous.

 

Anyway, how did that huge SUV get in the mall?

Drove through the glass entrance doors of Sears.

Someone drove through the doors of Trump Plaza in New Rochelle, NY on the 17th.  Is this a trend now?  

 

Workers said after the car plowed into the lobby, a male got out and took a seat on the sofa.  Said nothing.  Several people in the lobby were injured, none life threatening.

It's Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg, IL, which is one of Chicago's NW suburbs. I live about 25 minutes from there.

That's not the whole story. It's reported that the driver has a medical condition, he blacked out right before the crash, and he was shaken and bleeding -- so he sat down on the couch after he got out of the vehicle.
