A woman plowed into a convenience store Saturday, destroying the storefront as well as a large amount of inventory. But fortunately, no one – including the infant she had in the vehicle – was injured. Hayley R. Wynn, 20, Roberts Street, Sylvania, was pulling into the parking lot at Mill Creek Store on Lester Road around 6:37 p.m. Saturday when she apparently “attempted to park but pressed the gas by mistake,” said Statesboro Police Advance Patrol Officer Marcus Hartwell.
