The Canadian Press, 16 Apr, 2018 01:45 PM

Vancouver police are investigating after a man allegedly reversed his pick-up truck into a police vehicle.

Police say a 38-year-old man slowly pulled up in front of Vancouver police headquarters Friday evening, before speeding around the block.

Officers watched as the man allegedly drove through a stop sign, nearly hitting a cyclist.

He then allegedly stopped his truck in front of a marked police car before putting it in reverse and ramming the police car behind him.

Police say the man got out of the truck and was confrontational with officers before he was taken into customers.

No one was injured.

Officers say they are trying to determine what led to the man's actions.
