A man was taken into custody by the police after they discovered that he deliberately crashed a car into the storefront of a dealership in Sandy. It was a shocking turn of events that left many people in disbelief.
According to the Sandy Police, the man, identified as Michael Murray, had just purchased the car from Tim Dahle Mazda Southtowne on Monday morning. The car in question was a Subaru Outback, as seen in videos that were sent to FOX 13 News. However, just a few hours after the purchase, Murray claimed to have found some mechanical issues with the car and decided to return it to the dealership. He referred to it as a "lemon" and was determined to get his money back.
Despite his efforts, the management at Tim Dahle Mazda Southtowne refused to take the car back, citing their "as is" policy. This did not sit well with Murray, who then allegedly threatened to drive through the dealership's front door if they did not comply with his demands. And unfortunately, shortly after 4pm, he did just that.
The police reported that Murray drove his car through the front door of the dealership, causing an estimated $USD 10,000 in damages. Thankfully, no one was hurt during the incident, despite there being around seven salesmen near the door at the time. Murray was immediately arrested and is now facing charges of felony criminal mischief and reckless endangerment.
One employee at the dealership, Aylin Hernandez, expressed her relief that she was not present during the incident. She couldn't help but wonder what could have happened if she had been there. "Who knows - it could've been fatal," she said, still shaken by the events of the day. She also noted that Murray seemed to have acted out of rage, without thinking of the consequences of his actions.
Overall, it was a terrifying and unfortunate situation that could have ended much worse. The police are still investigating the incident and have yet to determine what exactly triggered Murray's actions. In the meantime, the dealership is left to pick up the pieces and repair the damage caused by the man's reckless behavior.
