In a freak incident in Pune, a drunk driver crashed his vehicle into a hotel building and also crushed several parked cars after being denied food service by the hotel.
The incident occurred on Friday night in Indrapur of Pune district, where the drunk driver grew livid after the owner of a hotel in Hingangaon on the Pune-Solapur Highway refused to serve him food.
In an inebriated state, the driver drove the heavy container vehicle into the building. No one was killed or injured, but the hotel suffered significant infrastructural damage.
The driver was travelling from Solapur to Pune with a container truck. He stopped and went to the hotel, requesting food. Due to his drunken state, the hotel owner refused to serve him, triggering the incident.
When food was refused, the driver grew angry, started the container truck, and drove it straight into the hotel. Still not satisfied, he reversed the vehicle and damaged several cars in the parking lot while local people tried to stop him by throwing stones at the truck.
The police registered a case against the drunk driver and took him into custody at the scene. Further investigation is underway.
