Juan Flores, 34, of Mamaroneck, who works for a nearby Mexican restaurant, said he saw a red car backing into the restaurant, crashing the glass doors.

"The car was trying to get out of the parking lot," said Flores in Spanish, translated by his wife, Tannya Flores. "The person (who's driving the car), instead of stopping the car, accelerated the car and went into the restaurant."
