At least 8 injured after customer rams into CarMax store in California

At least eight people were injured after a customer rammed into a CarMax store in Inglewood, California, Saturday afternoon, according to the Inglewood Police Department. The incident is being investigated as an intentional act.

Police were dispatched to the store on the 8600 block of S. La Cienega Boulevard at around 2:03 p.m. local time, after a customer exited the building, entered a vehicle and drove into the business, police said, adding that a “business dispute” may have been the driver’s motive.

Video of the crash circulating on social media shows a silver Subaru backing into the business via a doorway before making a turn and driving out via another doorway.

Eight people were injured as a result of the crash, including two who were critically injured and taken to area hospitals, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department.

Police say the driver, whom police have not identified, left the store following the crash and turned himself in to the Los Angeles Police Department at a police academy on Manchester Avenue. He was arrested and is being detained. The suspect faces multiple counts, including assault with a deadly weapon. Inglewood police have not responded to a request for comment.

In a statement, CarMax said the suspect was a customer who “had his vehicle appraised” and injured “several associates and customers” after driving through the store.

“The safety of our associates, community and customers is our top priority,” CarMax said in the statement. “We are deeply saddened by this event and our hearts go out to everyone impacted.”

The company said it has “a plan of action in place” and that it is “working with the authorities on the investigation.”
