Terrifying footage shows SUV crashing into barbershop and severely injuring 10-year-old boy

Terrifying footage of a SUV crashing into a Houston barbershop has gone viral.

Surveillance footage captured the moment a Porsche Macan struck the 32 Degrees Barbershop in the Texan city at around 12:15pm on Saturday (December 14) afternoon.

The footage of the crash shows many in the barbershop making a run for it as the car comes plummeting towards the establishment.

A 10-year-old was reportedly hit by the vehicle.

Staff from the barbershop have said the boy was injured following the incident and is now recovering in the hospital.

The boy was flung into the massage parlour next door, as the car entered the strip center in Houston after entering through the front of the church.

The driver of the SUV, a 61-year-old man, drove through four interior walls before coming to a standstill in a gun shop.

Joseph Rothchild, who owns the strip mall, says he spoke to the driver who claimed that he'd just been for treatment at the dialysis center before the crash.

"He said he remembered backing up, and he remembered going forward, but after that, he just remembered waking up in the space," Rothchild said.

25 people were in the barbershop at the time of the accident, while a woman who was in a nearby dress shop was taken to hospital because of her injuries, according to Rothchild.

Police say the 10-year-old child sustained internal bleeding, and details on the injured woman in the dress shop remain unclear.

No fatalities have been reported and other victims have sustained non-life-threatening injuries, police also said.

As per the Independent, barber Chez Robertson said: "It was just a normal Saturday of cutting. I finished my client, and I was about to put my 10-year-old in the chair.

"The kid is doing much better and is now recovering in the ICU. I just ask that you all keep the prayers going for the little man. He's a great kid that loves to talk trash to his barber. He's funny too!"

Darrick Brown, the owner of the shop, told Fox San Antonio: "Man, it was crazy, man. I was shaken up, man when I turned. I was like, 'cause it's like the kid just disappeared.

"I don't know. It's just one of them things that happen, man."

Police have confirmed the unidentified man will be held without fault, meaning he is being held responsible despite not intending to cause harm.
