Car strikes Old Town gelato shop in rash of vehicles crashing into buildings

Updated at 4 p.m. A driver crashed a car into an Old Town business early this morning (Wednesday) and was transported to Inova Alexandria Hospital.

The crash into Casa Rosada Artisan Gelato at 111 S. Payne Street occurred around 1 a.m. The male driver was taken away on a stretcher.

No charges were filed and the incident is under investigation, according to the Alexandria Police Department.

This is the third vehicle reportedly crashing into an Alexandria building in less than a week.

On Saturday, a truck repeatedly crashed into a CVS in Del Ray and thieves tried to steal an ATM machine. Yesterday, a car crashed into a store at the Bradlee Shopping Center, where a handful of storefronts have been struck in recent years.
