Truck Crashes Into Hymie's Deli

No one was seriously hurt, according to reports.

A pickup truck plowed through the front of Hymie's Deli in Merion-Cynwyd early Thursday morning, reportedly injuring only the driver.

Video footage from YouTube user Michael Sokil showed the aftermath of the crash, which authorities said happened just before 6 a.m.

Montgomery Avenue lanes were closed Thursday morning at the scene. 

The driver had minor injuries and none of the restaurant workers were hurt, according to several reports.

Hymie's announced on its Facebook page Thursday afternoon that it was reopening for business, using a play on post-Hurricane Sandy New Jersey's "Stronger than the Storm" campaign: "'Cause We're Tougher than the Truck!"
