Horror unfolded last week at the Westwood 99 Ranch Market.
Three people were killed when an elderly driver mistook the gas pedal for the
brake, sped up uncontrollably, then plowed through the front glass doors of the
grocery store at the corner of Westwood and Rochester. The dashcam footage from
a passing car is difficult to watch.
