Three Virginia Beach police officers were injured trying to rescue the driver after the crash, according to a news release from state police.
"The police came in pretty quickly right after everything happened and started getting everyone to get out the back door."
The driver died upon impact. Three officers suffered smoke inhalation and two people were hit by flying debris, according to troopers.
The co-owner of The Bunker Brewpub, Tom Wilder, says no one inside the restaurant was injured when a car crashed into a guardrail of the building Friday night. Wilder says the car crashed into the guardrail outside of the glass garage door and says the car never came into the building.
