The woman sped away but the man reportedly followed her.

The man lost control of his vehicle striking a fire hydrant and traveling several feet into a car wash business where he hit a machine used to pay for a car wash. The man exited the vehicle and fled. The vehicle burst into flames after making impact with the machine. The woman drove to GATA’s Sports Bar and Grill to seek safety.  The woman was unharmed.
