Doing a dash, then a smash

DETROIT (AP) - June 17, 2009

Four women trying skip out on their check plowed into a Detroit International House of Pancakes. >Restaurant manager Raymond Jefferson tells the Detroit Free Press the women left early yesterday morning without paying their tab.

The server chased them out the door.

But one of the women lost control of a Mercury Cougar as they drove away, and crashed through the IHOP's wall.

Police cited 19-year-old Ashanti Barber at the scene.

Her father says she had $200 in cash on her.

He says it was her friends' idea to skip out on the bill.
