Around 4 p.m. on Saturday afternoon, two cars collided on E. Northwest Highway across from White Rock Coffee. The collision sent one car careening into the coffee shop’s parking lot, crashing directly into a utility pole before spinning and hitting an old telephone booth and light pole.
Luckily, neither driver was seriously injured and the incident did not hurt any bystanders or their vehicles. The accident caused an immediate power outage inside, prompting an all-night repair job by Oncor.

Power was restored the following morning, and White Rock Coffee resumed their standard operating hours on Sunday. As of Monday, the shop remains without internet, but the espresso machines are back and running.
