Shopping in Bashas & heard sirens close by, sounded close. Checked it out. Customer showed us this on web. We’re commenting. We’ll be reading here often.
I work in west Sedona & heard people talking about the accident after it happened the rest of day. The stories got bigger & bigger. Last story was police chase ended with car in restaurant & nearly killing people, then some man said read this here on line & tell them what really happened if you hear more talkers.Nice to read the truth you know. Karma Cafe went out of business & thought it might have been that location but it wasn’t. Edna
