Canadian police say a man was crushed to death by his own vehicle while waiting in a McDonald’s drive-thru.
According to the Vancouver police department, last week officers were called in around 5:30 a.m. to help with a single car accident.
The surveillance video showed the driver dropping an item from the car while trying to pay for his order at a McDonald’s.
When he got to look for what the Vancouver Sun reported as his payment card, police said his vehicle was advancing, “crashing into a structural part of the restaurant.”
“The driver could not get out of the vehicle as it was fixed between the door and the frame of the vehicle,” police said.
Early operatives worked to revive the man, but he died at the scene, police said.
“This is an absolutely heartbreaking scenario,” agent Tania Visintin said in a press release. “Our deepest condolences go to this man’s family and friends.”
Police said the department’s collision investigation unit and British Columbia’s coronary services have taken over the investigation.
