The driver of a car that crashed into Ed’s Chicken and Crabs in Dewey Beach in August was sentenced to two years of probation after pleading guilty to first-offense DUI and criminal mischief.
Michelle Small, 37, of Wyoming, apologized for the accident at her June 2 sentencing.
“I am truly sorry,” she said, fighting back tears. “If I could take it back, I would.”
Besides probation, Small was ordered by Delaware Superior Court Judge E. Scott Bradley to pay a $500 fine and $241,000 in restitution - $65,000 to Ed’s owner Ed Riggin and $176,000 to the Catts family, owners of the building.

stupid to pin that much restitution on someone who will never make that much money. their / her insurance paid the tab.
One can only hope that the place doesn't get rebuilt. Bad service, bad crabs and no beer allowed or for sale.
