Small business owners in Boston are speaking out after a car crashed into a building in the city’s Roslindale neighborhood over the weekend, causing it to partially collapse.

"Every business up there, we’re all small business owners. We’re all entrepreneurs. It’s a lot of solo entrepreneurs, family businesses, the owners are family people, we all live in the neighborhood so it’s going to be I think a real test of the Roslindale community and we’ll be looking for the support from our neighborhoods and help from people who are around," Leise Jones, operator of the Leise Jones Photography studio, also said to NBC Boston.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu told reporters at the scene that the city is "all ‘hands on deck’ trying to make sure" the businesses at the building are OK.

This happens all of the time , and no big deal .

What is with this cars crashing into buildings and homes these days. Brockton, MA has them all the time where i grew up!!

I don't understand where the insurance companies are for the building owner, each of the store owners, and the vehicle owners are. This should have been covered. The reconstruction of the building to make it look like it was should not be a problem.

Sometimes the best of people comes out in these circumstances. Let’s go Boston.
