Car crash
Mount Gambier’s Jagga Jagga store and pedestrians suffered a close call when a vehicle almost crashed through the front doors of the shop this afternoon.

An elderly woman was travelling west on James Street when her blue Hyundai Lantra left the road and slammed into the north-eastern corner of the Jagga Jagga store about 4.30pm.

The woman suffered only minor injuries and managed to exit the vehicle on her own.

She was taken to the Mount Gambier Hospital by SA Ambulance Service for medical treatment.

Police, Metropolitan Fire Service and the State Emergency Service also attended.

Traffic was diverted at the corner of James and Gray Streets for half an hour while the accident site was cleared.
