Local Business Receives Roof Damage from High Winds

High winds from a severe thunderstorm today (Thursday) tore part of the roof off at Doc’s Detail or Custom on East Bryant Street.
Danny Washer, owner and operator of the business, said he was inside working on a car when the storm hit. “I’d been listening to the radio and I knew there was bad weather coming. It started blowing in a little bit of rain and I was fixing to wax a car so to keep it dry I started to pull the (garage) doors down and just as I pulled them down I heard a strange sound, that’s when the roof went off. Tiles then started falling. That’s about it. In less than thirty seconds it was gone. It was weird because it didn’t touch nothing else around here. It just got this building right here.”
Although the building received significant roof damage, Washer, who was there alone at the time, was not injured.
