The Canadian Press, 20 Jul, 2015 11:54 AM

WINNIPEG — Police in Winnipeg say a moving truck rammed into five cruisers parked right outside police headquarters this morning.

Witness Tim Jaskow says the truck pulled alongside the row of cars and backed up three times as other traffic stopped.

Jaskow says the truck then simply left.

Damage to the cars was noticeable and included dented doors and broken mirrors.

Sgt. Nick Paulet says police have talked to witnesses and are looking for surveillance footage.
