Weird wreck on Cooper Street Saturday morning 4/26

So I went to go grab some stuff from walgreens late Friday night/saturday morning, and had to go to midtown because the fucking downtown walgreens closes at sundown.

So I get to the walgreens at Poplar and McLean, and they have a sign on the door that says “Temporarily closed due to power outage”, yet the power was on. I guess maybe it knocked out their computers. Anyway, I finally found an open Walgreen’s at Highland and Park, grabbed my shit, and headed back home. I took highland down to central, then was cutting down Cooper to Union. I noticed a car on the southbound side of the road that looked like it was pulled up kinda facing the curb. I thought it was a cop shining his lights on something at first.

I got closer and noticed it was clearly wrecked, pretty solid hit into the light pole. The door was open, but I couldn’t tell if anyone was inside. There was a car coming on that side of the road, and they pulled over, so I figured I would just call it in and keep going. I called 911 and told them a car had hit a pole, someone else had stopped to check it out, and I didn’t know anything else.

I turned on Union toward downtown and got a few blocks, and started to feel bad for not stopping, so I make a huge block, down McLean to Central, and then back to Cooper. Car still sitting there, no one inside or around. 14 minutes had passed, still no cops there. I took a shitty cell phone pic and left.
