Washington, Missouri - The Missouri Health & Wellness Dispensary in Washington is back in business after a recent fire caused by a car crash that resulted in heavy damage to the building. The dispensary has temporarily relocated to a temporary building next door, allowing them to continue serving their customers while the original location is being rebuilt.

On Thanksgiving Day, in the early hours of the morning, the Washington Police Department received an alarm from the dispensary's security system. Upon arrival, they found a Chevrolet passenger vehicle inside the lobby of the dispensary and the 24-year-old driver, who was taken into custody on suspicion of driving while intoxicated. The driver told investigators that she was headed to Truesdale, a Warren County community, but the preliminary investigation shows she was actually headed in the opposite direction.

During the investigation, the vehicle caught fire and set portions of the dispensary on fire, causing heavy fire and smoke damage. Despite the efforts of the police officers on the scene, the fire could not be contained and the Washington Fire Department was called to the scene. The fire was eventually contained, but not before causing significant damage to the dispensary.

Despite the setback, the Missouri Health & Wellness Dispensary has bounced back and is now operating from the temporary building next door. The dispensary is committed to providing their customers with the same level of service and quality products, even while operating from the temporary location.

This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of supporting local businesses during difficult times. The Missouri Health & Wellness Dispensary has been a staple of the Washington community for many years and will continue to be for many more. They are grateful for the support of their customers and look forward to serving them from their temporary location while they work on rebuilding their original location.
