A man identified as Michael Lee Murray crashed into a dealership with a Subaru Outback after attempting to return it hours after purchasing the car. The video capturing the incident went viral on social media.
Michael Lee Murray crashed into a dealership in Utah, USA, hours after purchasing a Subaru Outback on Monday (9). The man claims he tried to return the car, but the staff refused his request.
A video recorded by a store employee shows Murray breaking the dealership windows, sending glass shards everywhere. People in the store narrowly escaped, and no one was injured.
“I warned you, you…” Murray shouted after exiting the car. “Call the police, they can’t do anything,” he said while arguing with the employees.
According to Newsweek, the furious driver stormed into the store after his refund request was denied. “I was really mad, upset about my money. I think I lost my mind for a moment,” he explained to Inside Edition.
Michael Lee Murray was arrested and charged with a felony for vandalism, misdemeanors for recklessly putting people in danger, and economic disruption. He was released on Tuesday (10).
The damage to the dealership was estimated at $10,000.
The man had purchased a Subaru Outback from the dealership earlier that morning. When he later called to return the car, his request was denied, as the vehicle was sold “as is.” Frustrated, he threatened to crash the car into the dealership if they refused to take it back. pic.twitter.com/jBdv4dyQxK
