Woman Hit by Car in Food Lion Parking Lot

News, Wilkes, Wilkes County, Wilkesboro Comments (0)

A Moravian Falls woman was injured Sunday when a car hit her shopping cart in the parking lot of the Food Lion on Westwood Lane in Wilkesboro. Wilkes EMS transported 62-year old Reba Cannon to Wilkes Regional after the incident, where doctors found she had a broken foot and a sprained hand. The accident happened about 1:30pm Sunday, as Michelle Bullis was backing out of a parking spot in front of the store. She says another car was also backing out of its spot and she was concerned about possibly being run into by the other driver. When she got clear, here eyes were apparently on the mirror and she rounded the front of the line of cars and didn't see Mrs. Cannon, who was coming out the front door of Food Lion, pushing the shopping cart, her husband by her side. The impact sent the cart into him, but only she was taken to the hospital. So far, no tickets have been issued in relation to the wreck.
