LACONIA, N.H. (WHDH) - New video shared with 7NEWS shows the crash that sent a car smashing into a bar in Laconia, New Hampshire over the weekend.
The crash happened on Sunday afternoon near the Looney Bin Bar & Grill off Endicott Street.
In surveillance video, a car can be seen pulling out of a lot across the street into a lane of traffic. The car hits an oncoming car, sending it slamming into the Looney Bin Bar & Grill building.
The impact sent 14 people to the hospital, officials said. Two of the patients who were transported had significant lower leg injuries, while the others had cuts. Twenty people were evaluated at the scene and did not require medical transport.
The bar’s owner Michelle Watson spoke to 7NEWS after the crash. She said her business has been in operation for 18 years. The crash, she said, compromised three walls.
While the bar plans to reopen after making repairs, there was not a timeline available as of Tuesday for that process.
There is a GoFundMe campaign currently raising money for the Looney Bin.
The crash remains under investigation.
