Store still open for business after woman backs into wall
Jiffy Lube was open for business yesterday, although a car crashed through the side of the building and stopped in its lobby early yesterday morning.
Eugene Ross, manager of the business at 2415 Iowa St. said a man had asked a woman who was with him to drive home his 1983 Volvo with a standard transmission because he had been drinking.
"She must have confused first gear with reverse because she reversed right into my lobby," he said.
Ross said he estimated the damage at $10,000. He said the accident had destroyed his lobby, breaking a glass window and door and two walls. He opened his business at 9 a.m. after cleaning up the damage. Because the damage is mostly to the lobby, he said customers shouldn't be affected.
"People won't be able to sit anywhere, but I'll pull out some chairs, and we'll make do," he said.
Woman in stable condition after accident with truck
A 57-year-old Topeka woman remains hospitalized in stable condition after a truck-pedestrian accident yesterday morning at the intersection of Seventh and New Hampshire streets, Lawrence Police Sgt. Mike Patrick said.
Margaret Todd, 30. Lawrence resident, was driving south on New Hampshire Street and turned left onto Seventh Street when she struck Janice Curtis, who was crossing Seventh Street in the crosswalk at 9:49 a.m. yesterday, Patrick said.
Curtis was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and was then transported by air ambulance to the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kan.
Patrick said Lawrence police had not issued any citations yet and were conducting a full investigation of the accident. He said police were investigating whether alcohol had been a contributing factor.

Former Florida officer convicted in clerk's death
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - A former police officer was convicted yesterday of conspiracy and a second federal charge in the killing of a convenience store owner.
Sami Safa was slain in July 1998 after leaving a bank with $51,000 to cash payroll checks for his customers.
The 15 federal charges against Karl Waldon grew out of a federal investigation into allegations that Jacksonville police officers tipped off drug dealers about raids.
Witnesses testified Waldon stopped Safar with his patrol car, drove to a parking lot and choked Safar unconscious with a rope. The medical examiner could not determine the cause of death.
The jury convicted Waldon, 39, of conspiracy and intimidating and injuring.
