cbc.ca

A car crashed into Sam's Seafood and Grill in Dartmouth late Saturday, driven by a 21-year-old man suspected of being impaired. The vehicle broke through a brick wall and caused damage to the patio area. The driver sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was arrested at the scene. He faces two charges related to alcohol-impaired driving and will appear in court later. Despite the incident, the restaurant reopened on Sunday, with minimal disruption to business. A hole in the building and debris were visible, but the owner reported no significant impact on operations.
