Soudan Ave is closed between Mt. Pleasant and Brownlow Ave. Wednesday and the normally friendly patio at Starbucks looks like a bomb crater. It was about 4 o’clock Tuesday when staff and customers heard an enormous “bang” and then saw water shooting up out of the patio. Customers scrambled and water was flooding into the shop through the Soudan Ave door and down the steps into coffee-making land. Thousands have since then seen the video (below) of the unfortunate Starbucks customer (she’s a regular) who lost her footing and fell into what looks like three or more feet of water. People ran to the rescue, including Ryan Dawson, who shot the video. The woman was rescued and will be okay.
