A Jacksonville comic bookstore is back open after a car crashed into the building last Tuesday night.–

Surveillance video shows cries for help from one of the comic bookstore’s employees who was hurt. Customers and other workers were also inside at the time of the crash.“I’m coming, I’m coming. Oh my God,” store owner Ben Kingsbury can be heard saying in the surveillance video.“I have never experienced any kind of survivor’s guilt, it is very hard for me to think about Santana being hurt and not me,” Kingsbury said.

The store now has a temporary front door as the entire front of the store is boarded up. There is no timeline for when it will all get fixed.
