In a jaw-dropping incident that defies belief, a turtle came crashing through the windshield of a moving vehicle in Savannah, Georgia, but what’s even more astonishing is that both occupants of the car, siblings Latonya Lark and Kevin Grant, miraculously escaped serious injury.
Lark recounted the heart-stopping moment, saying, “I thought it was a brick, and I told (my brother), ‘my God, there’s a brick!'” Both siblings were left stunned, covered in shattered glass, before comprehending what had occurred.
Grant, a licensed cosmetologist, shared his reaction, saying, “When the glass broke, the first thing that comes to my mind was just to shield myself. So I was like, you know, turn and cover.”
After the shocking ordeal, the siblings pulled over and called for assistance. According to the police report, the turtle inflicted such severe damage to the car that it couldn’t be driven safely and had to be towed.
Lark emphasized that the thickness of the windshield and her quick thinking likely prevented a catastrophic outcome. Lark recalled, “According to the police officer, had the glass not been as thick as it was, and if I hadn’t immediately reduced my speed upon spotting the object, the outcome could have been catastrophic.”
