On Wednesday morning, Norfolk Police and Fire Departments received 911 calls about a reported accident at Daley Service Center at the intersection of Main Street and Rockwood Road.
Upon arrival, first responders discovered a chaotic scene: a gas pump ripped out and smashed, obvious damage to a few cars, and a Falvey Linen Supply truck dangling precariously over a retaining wall.
Eyewitnesses on scene reported that the truck plowed through the gas pump, came to s stop, and then sped up again, slamming into a parked Ford Taurus, and Ford pickup truck before coming to stop and teetering over the wall.
It’s a minor miracle that no staff, customers, and pedestrians were struck and injured, or worse, killed and there was no fire or gas leak.

Locals mentioned that the poorly designed roundabout was a common site of minor accidents and felt that it was only a matter of time before a major accident ocurred.
