1 dead after vehicle crashes into Oregon health club, police say

Get this guy in the bureau

Given that he rather gently drove through the front glass door, turned right, went down the hallway, and got into the area of the restaurant before blowing up, yeah, I'd say this was done on purpose.

the rumor on the street here is disgruntled employee

Quote(s) above ^ say that some were detonated.

Maybe they did it in the name of irony.

Thank you! It's a long article but there's a paywall, so here are the most relevant bits: > The ground floor of the building was “completely destroyed” and suffered “millions of dollars in damages,” said one of the law enforcement sources, who requested anonymity because the investigation is still ongoing. >[...] >The club’s first floor was home to a casual restaurant, formal event spaces, a members’ lounge overlooking Providence Park, a retail store and the front desk. The damage was to the building’s first floor; the building has multiple stories, with workout facilities, a rock-climbing wall, pools, locker rooms, an indoor track, racquet sport courts and other amenities throughout. >[...] >Police said the driver entered the building’s lobby, turned right, and drove through a set of turnstiles, past a wall display with trophies and other memorabilia, and towards 26 Founders, a table service restaurant at the private club, before setting off the explosives. > [...] > At a press conference Saturday afternoon, Police Chief Bob Day said medical examiners were unable to identify the driver as crews continued working to diffuse the explosives. > > Day said police are confident that the incident was confined to the MAC, and that there are no other threats to the community. > > Along with the Federal Bureau of Investigations and the Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms and Tobacco, a team of experts trained to dispose of explosives was still working within the building as of Saturday afternoon, law enforcement officials said. The car involved in the incident remained inside the building. > > DeFrain, from the Metro Explosive Disposal Unit, which includes bomb technicians from multiple police agencies, said officers found a number of incendiary devices and improvised explosive devices, including some that had already been detonated and some that had started to do so and then fizzled out. > > “This is a dirty, dangerous, complex job,” DeFrain said. “I’ve been a bomb technician here in this city for over 13 years. This is by far the most complex scene I have ever done.” Also, apparently: > Family dues are $422.34 per month, and $280.11 for an individual. So it's a pretty elite kind of club. And: >The club had been tightening its security in recent years, at great expense, after a former employee was arrested for verbally confronting members at their homes and in public, according to messages sent to club members that were shared with The Oregonian/OregonLive. No idea whether or not it's the same former employee.

A disgruntled employee, uh oh 😳

that explains this headline, they are trying to downplay it

Interesting - I saw a photo of the pink chicken in another article but didn’t know about the other stuff. Pretty sad given it sounds like his brain was broken….
