Its good that no one was hurt but a shame that this has happened. Just like the IHOP on Wilshire accident six or seven months ago, another out of control vehicle.
At approximately 4pm yesterday, an out of control SUV traveling eastbound on Hollywood Blvd. crashed through the front of the building, coming to a stop in the iO West bar.
Nobody was injured.
Damage to the exterior and interior of the building is extensive and means that the Mainstage and Bar are CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
WEEKEND CLASSES WILL CONTINUE AS SCHEDULED.
Phone service at the theatre and office has been interrupted, so no calls can get through.
Updates will be posted as soon as they are available
