Over the weekend, a car crashed into the wall in front of the apartment building where I work. It was a spectacular crash with multiple explosions and a fire that took several hours to get out. Unfortunately, the two men in the car died instantly. They were estimated at going 80-100 mph when the hit the wall, so it is no surprise, however very sad.
A resident first alerted us to what happened. My co-worker, Andrew, and I had to look it up online to find the details I listed above. That is all we really know. It wasn't as if the police came and told us anything. We had to find this out on our own.
Ok, so the reason I am mentioning this is that for the last 2 days, we have had numerous people come ask us what happened. They have mostly been residents and they want to share what they saw with what we know. A few people though, like the UPS and FedEx delivery men, have wanted to know things like: why were they going so fast? Why didn't they turn? Who were they? and many other equally stupid questions. How on earth are we supposed to know this? Just because we manage the building they ran into, people think we have these details. It is getting harder and harder to answer people today. It was a terrible tragic accident and people want all the gory details, details we don't have. It is so sad.
