A dog in the US has cost its owner millions following destruction of properties caused after it decided to drive a truck which its owner had left running in a carpark in the US state of Minnesota on Friday.
According to witnesses, the golden Labrador retriever drove across a road and knocked down many things in its path, including a car parked by the road side.
The ‘suspect’ – a golden Labrador retriever!
The police in the city of Mankato said the dog may have mistakenly knocked the vehicle into gear, sending it ploughing through the car park, across the street and over a curb.
Crashing into the parked car broke its advance, customers in a nearby petrol station said, relating how they looked on in alarm at the spectacle.
A passerby said he discovered the dog sitting behind the wheel when he jumped into the truck to stop it, Sky News reported, quoting Free Press of Mankato.
