Billy Corgan’s mother-in-law was injured after a car drove into the singer’s tea shop near Chicago.
The musician shared a statement Wednesday on behalf of his wife, Chloe Mendel, via Instagram. The Smashing Pumpkins frontman’s son, 8, was inside the shop but not injured in the crash.
“This afternoon at Madame ZuZu’s, a car (in circumstances which remain under investigation), drove over the curb and into Madame ZuZu’s, crashing through the window and sadly injuring one person – my mother, Jenny; who was spending the day and lunching with my son Augustus.”
“Thankfully, he was able to leap out of the way and was not injured. Our family is grateful for the swift assistance of the Highland Park and Deerfield first responders.”
