Rylie Guentensberger was inside the RNK Running & Walking store in Parker on April 29, when the runaway car tore through the entire length of the store, shattering glass, hitting people and knocking over merchandise laden shelves, before coming to a stop at the back door. A total of seven people were injured that day. h/t

Our thoughts and prayers are with family and friends at this difficult time.
