Impaired driver rams car into Vancouver business after argument with staff
An intoxicated driver repeatedly rammed their car into a Marpole business after an argument with staff Monday afternoon, police say.
The argument was a “minor altercation,” but the driver apparently thought the next course of action was to drive into the business’ front door — multiple times.
It happened around 4:30 pm near 70th Avenue and Granville Street, and police were able to prevent the vehicle from leaving.
The driver was arrested on scene, the force said on social media.
