RCMP called in Air One, which followed the truck to an underground parking lot in Burnaby.

Officers surrounded the building waiting for the driver to come out, and were reviewing security camera footage in order to determine whether the driver lived in the building.

The vehicle was eventually seized and towed.

There is no word on why he was initially stopped in the first place. The Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of B.C., whose Gang Enforcement Team are taking the lead in the investigation, have yet to determine the identity of the driver and say no arrests have been made.
