MOUNT CARMEL — The SKIPEZ Market in Mount Carmel does a brisk business selling fried chicken and burgers, but it wasn’t planning on installing a drive-through window any time soon.

Someone should have mentioned that to the Kingsport woman who allegedly drove an Isuzu Trooper SUV through the glass front doors Friday night.

The day manager, Rajesh Bhansar, was standing right in front of the doors when the accident occurred. He suffered minor injuries and was transported to Holston Valley Medical Center for treatment.

A customer who was at the cash register when the accident occurred also suffered minor injuries but refused treatment.

The driver, Rachel Clonce, 37, 1432 Melvin St., Kingsport, had purchased cigarettes at the store moments before the accident. She fled the scene after the accident.
