“The car was parked [and] no one was moving inside,” witness Mitchell Thiessen told Global News. “I pulled home from work and went inside and watched and the car just slowly scraped the side of my vehicle and went all the way into the tree.”
“Lots of screaming, lots of fighting. The guy went fine but she was a yeller.”
