FULLERTON, Calif. Witnesses and emergency responders lifted a pickup truck off people trapped when a driver plowed into a crowd on a sidewalk in Southern California early Sunday, injuring at least nine, authorities said.
Police arrested a 22-year-old man on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs after the truck crashed into a popular area of Fullerton filled with people leaving bars and restaurants shortly before closing time.

Now there is a case where police and EMS really earn their money. Likely dealing with impaired driver, victims , witnesses and probably on lookers. I don't know how they do it.

I suspect that he was rolling down the street smoking endo, sipping on gin and juice.
