Special thanks to Pizza D’Action’s Josh Doering for the following photographs of destruction wrought at the Stifft Station watering hole and restaurant by a hit-and-run driver early yesterday morning. He also came up with the title of this blog post, which was too good not to use.

Little Rock Police Department spokesman Terry Hastings said a witness saw a white Toyota Camry slam into the building around 5:20 a.m. Thursday — the driver apparently having missed the curve coming onto Markham off Kavanaugh. After the dust settled, the driver threw it into reverse, backed out of the restaurant, and drove away. An investigation is ongoing, though Hastings said they do have a good description of the car and a partial license plate.

The restaurant boarded up the hole, cleaned up a bit, and reopened the same day.
