VBPD: Multiple injured after car crashes into patio at Murphy’s Irish Pub

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) — Multiple people were injured after a car crashed into the fenced outdoor patio of Murphy's Irish Pub at the corner of Pacific Avenue and 30th Street at the Oceanfront Friday evening, Virginia Beach Police said. A police spokesperson said the victims were taken to area hospitals with injuries ranging from life-threatening to non life-threatening. Daniel Auxier was working valet across the street when he heard tires screaching. He said he was shocked by what happened. "As soon as I looked up, they were going pretty fast and they just blew through the wall at Murphy's," Auxier said. "I saw bricks and smoke fly up through the air. A bunch of people jumped up, started screaming. And I just saw the passenger get out and sit down. He hasn't stood up since." Auxier said the Murphy's patio was packed with people at the time of the crash. Police are investigating the incident. Check with WAVY.com for updates.
