A furious woman drove her car at top speed through a shopfront after a row with the employees.
CCTV footage shows how people inside and outside the shop spotted the oncoming car at the last minute and jumped out of the way.
The car smashed through the shopfront and rammed a till out of the way before coming to a stop against a broken pillar.

The driver then emerged from the car amid the scenes of destruction and started chasing an employee.
Those present managed to restrain her and stop her from fleeing the scene.
The baffling scenes unfolded at a beverage distributor on Sunday (1 December) morning.
Two people sustained minor injuries during 21-year-old Sâmia Silva Sá’s fit of rage in Palmas, Brazil.
An employee told local media that Sá had argued with staff because she wanted to buy a single beer but they only sold them by the pack.
During the ensuing altercation, she allegedly slapped a male employee in the face, knocking his glasses off.
She then allegedly launched into a tirade against a female employee before trading blows with her.
The police believe Sá was under the influence of alcohol when she got into her car moments later and accelerated towards the shopfront.
She struck a person and collided with another vehicle as she hurtled towards the shop, as reported by Need To Know.
The police believe Sá intended to drive her car into the female employee with whom she’d fought.
The woman was left with injuries to her foot, while one of her male colleagues was pressed against a pillar.
While first responders were tending to the pair, Sá managed to break free from a firefighter.
She allegedly grabbed the woman by the hair and pulled her to the ground before being restrained again.
She was later arrested and charged with two counts of attempted murder.
She was also charged with criminal damage, assault occasioning actual bodily harm, and harassment.
She was remanded into custody but was placed under house arrest with an ankle tag on Monday (2 December).
Sá’s lawyers have since said she is “fully willing to cooperate with the authorities”.
