An Indian-origin elderly couple were dining in an Indian restaurant in Texas when an SUV smashed into the front glass of the restaurant and hit them. Raj and Kala Arivalahan, the Indian-origin Maryland couple, received minor injuries as their table was overturned and they were thrown across the restaurant. They were on a call with their son when the accident took place. The couple recalled the horror to Fox 4 as Raj said, „That time, the car came in, I fell down, she was pushed out the other side, and I was sliding on the floor towards the end.“„I immediately knew I was OK, and I was looking for him. I couldn’t find him for a minute. I thought I lost him,“ said the wife, Kala Arivalahan.„Fortunately, the car stopped. So I was inside the cage. It’s a kind of cage. The cage protected me, except all this pain and things, all the windows shattering. All I had were small, small cuts all over my body,“ said Raj.Police said the driver was reversing but did not put the vehicle on reverse, causing it to plow through the storefront. “I just hear a lot of commotion happening,“ the couple’s son Dr Thivijan Arivalahan, who was on the phone, said. The driver has not been charged, and the incident remains under investigation.Recently, an influencer duo had the same experience as they were at a Texas restaurant. Influencer Nina Santiago was filming herself eating with her boyfriend Patrick Blackwood when an SUV plowed into the building. The driver of the SUV was reportedly heading to the restaurant for a private event when she crashed. “The female driver of the vehicle advised that she thought she had placed the vehicle in park and upon releasing her foot off the brake, the vehicle rolled into the business, striking the building, and breaking the glass,” a spokesperson for Harris County Sheriff’s Office said.
