The drive-through window at Baskin-Robbins in Clarkston is open and the store is accepting DoorDash orders after a weekend accident at the business.

Baskin-Robbins is operating the drive-through during its regular business hours of 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., said Renee Charlton, owner of the business.

A disaster response crew installed a temporary covering in the wall and the ice cream shop at 1291 Bridge St. was able to reopen at 10 a.m. Sunday, less than 24 hours after the accident that happened at about 2 p.m. Saturday, Charlton said.

The lobby is expected to be open later this week, she said.

The accident occurred when a Lewiston woman, wearing snow boots she wasn’t accustomed to, was trying to park a Honda Pilot, according to law enforcement.

The vehicle jumped a curb and the sidewalk, then collided with a glass storefront after one of her feet got wedged under the gas pedal and she couldn’t pull it out, according to law enforcement.

The store wasn’t very busy when the accident happened, a factor that helped prevent anyone from getting hurt, Charlton said.
