Customers escaped death after a car ploughed through a busy cafe

Customers escaped death by inches after a runaway car ploughed through the front of a busy cafe while they were eating breakfast.

Ricky Garrett, 67, and his family had just moved to a warmer table when the red Kia Picanto smashed through the front window of the shop and into their former seats.

Multiple tables was smashed to pieces, and son Aaron, 34, fractured his thumb while pulling his mum Susan, 66, out of the path of the out of control car, yesterday (15).
