While thieves broke through the front window of the Sprint store in Richmond Heights Tuesday night, it was an accident that caused the broken window at the New Balance store on Big Bend Boulevard, not far away, according to an employee.
He said around 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday a man apparently stepped on the gas when he meant to hit the break, and crashed — with a noise ‘like a bomb’ — through the front window. There were no injuries.
