A vehicle has crashed into Starlite Diner & Coney Island in Burton once again. Truly, you cannot make this stuff up.
When I saw the post below on the Starlite Diner & Coney Island Facebook page, I could not believe it. Many Genesee County residents will remember that Starlite Coney Island was forced to close for several months after a vehicle crashed into the building back in August 2025.

According to ABC 12, the crash happened this past Saturday, November 7, 2026, just minutes before Starlite was scheduled to open its doors at 7:00 AM.
Thankfully, no employees inside the restaurant were injured. Surprisingly enough, Starlite was also able to open its doors later that same day.
