A pedestrian was injured Sunday afternoon after a car crashed into the Taste of Belgium location at The Banks.
The vehicle crashed into the building at 16 W. Freedom Way around 12:45 p.m., according to Cincinnati police spokesperson Lt. Jonathan Cunningham. No further information about the nature of the crash was available, but a crack could be seen in the building’s brick facade that afternoon.
The pedestrian was struck in the crash and hospitalized. Their medical condition is unknown at this time.
Taste of Belgium owner Jean-Francois Flechet said the restaurant was closed for the day following the crash. After assessing the damage, however, Flechet said the restaurant will reopen Monday under regular hours, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., according to Google.
Customers can use the entrance on Rose Parks Street if the front entrance is not available, Flechet added.
