On Monday, 21-year-old Callum Thompson was charged after his BMW ploughed through an Ilkeston bowling alley wall.
The vehicle smashed through the side of the MFA Bowl in Derbyshire and remarkably crossed all 16 bowling lanes before stopping on the opposite side. Three pedestrians were struck and injured during the high-speed collision, but emergency responders confirmed their injuries are not life-threatening. Thompson now faces several serious charges, including dangerous driving, criminal damage, and recklessly endangering life.
Building inspectors are currently assessing the structural damage to determine when the popular community venue can safely reopen.
