Dump truck driver crashes through FBI Pittsburgh security gate
Pittsburgh Tribune Review ^ | 07-26-2016 | Tribune Review

Posted on 07/26/2016 11:00:24 AM PDT by RS_Rider

A man driving a dump truck rammed through a security gate of the FBI Headquarters on the South Side Tuesday, an FBI spokesman said.

The driver was injured and transported to a hospital, but no one else was hurt, said Special Agent Greg Heeb. The ramming was intentional, he said, but the motive of the driver aren't clear yet.

“We're investigating it now with the Pittsburgh police,” he said.

Police have identified the driver but haven't released his identity yet, Heeb said.

Police stopped the driver on Carson Street after he ran several red lights, Heeb said. The driver said something to the officer and then “he took off and went right through the gate,” he said.

This wouldn’t happen if we had better dump truck control. I’ll bet it was a military style assault dump truck. They make people aggressive.

"We don't know why he did it but we know he meant to do it."

Sheesh, can we bring back Andy and Barney please?

I live in Pittsburgh. Local TV news called him a “white” man.

Which pretty much describes every Iranian ayotollah in my lifetime. Just sayin'.

If it was Danny McFadden or Robert Gruheinder it'd be all over the news by now....

Well, if the Munich shooter metamorphose go from a Syrian Ali Daud Sunbuli to German-born David Sonbol, then anything is possible.

This feels more like the irate Democrat who flew the plane into the Austin, TX IRS building a few years ago.

They know who he is. They won’t release that info because:

A: he’s a recent muslim transplant.

B: he’s a BLM/NBP/SJW muslim convert.

C: he’s the kid of muslim immigrants who pledged allegiance to ISIS while looking for the aloha snackbar.

or

D: is just another brain-dead democrat who likes to wreck company owned trucks to make some stupid statement.

It doesn't matter why he did it. No reasonable prosecutor would press charges.

He was emailing classified information on his cellphone when he crashed. Case closed!
