Jose Gutierrez, an employee at a nearby restaurant, said he was working when his car was smashed.

“I’m just said that without doing anything wrong, I got hit, and now I don’t have a car,” Gutierrez said.

Noah Wartels heard the impact of the crash.

“You heard the tires kind of swerve first,” said Wartels. “Then almost soon after, you heard the scaffolding come down… pretty insane.”

Police said a 21-year-old male and a 16-year-old male are in police custody. Charges are pending.
