...as our friends from dba tell it, the cab driver was taken off in an ambulance with unknown injuries, but amazingly nobody else was injured... all the more amazing when you look at the photos from inside via EVG reader Shawn...

I was in a cab on the street very near the him when it all happened and he almost hit us. He went up the curb into the fence, people ran to help him and he almost ran them over reversing full speed across first avenue and into dba. We are very lucky no one was injured - he almost ran over serveral pedestrians and almost hit a few cars that were on the street.
