TULSA, Okla. — Ida Red at 91st Street and Yale reopened on Wednesday after an SUV drove through the front doors Monday.

“There’s never a good time for this kind of thing to happen but, really not a great week for it to happen here because Small Business Saturday is this weekend and of course Black Friday,” said Ida Red owner, Angelene Wright after the crash.

Although there was a big mess to clean up, Wright said she’s thankful everyone was OK.

“We have one person with minor injuries, she’s gonna be fine, she’s getting checked out now and then the other kind of unmeasurable thing is our staff that was here is very shook up,” said Wright.

Wright said some merchandise was damaged, but it could’ve been a lot worse.

“We definitely lost some merchandise, you know all of that’s just stuff, we’ll be OK. I’m just so glad that everybody was safe,” said Wright.

By Wednesday, the wall was boarded up and customers returned to the store. They'll be open for Black Friday and Small Business Saturday.
